>Naomi has specifically stated that she did log into Andy's account. She shouldn't have done that (and, in fact, I wonder if she should be a moderator on the UT when she is willing to invade another's account). However, she also said his user ID and PW were the same. If that is the case, he should have indicated how poorly he configured his account and therefore how easy it would be to hack. His messages implied Naomi used her UT credentials to see his UT password and then used that same PW on Foxite in order to get in. Again, she should not have done this, but his accusation, since it failed to indicate a failure on his part to properly secure his account, implied an improper use of UT privileges on Naomi's part that does not seem justified. Additionally, it cast doubt upon the UT's security practices that also may not be justified (I am waiting to hear from Michel on that issue). I hope this can be dropped, but I also hope that Andy will - since Naomi has admitted her mistake -
> tell us if he indeed had his account configured so poorly that Naomi could hack it without any need to pilfer info from the UT.

I am not taking a side here, but didn't Andy mention that there were no failed logins? Meaning she guess the password correctly on the first try? That seems awfully amazingly lucky to me.

I am not a PUTM here, and I do not take my online presence very seriously. If somebody on here started causing problems for me, I would say the heck with it and go somewhere else. I would miss the people I chat with on here from time to time, but this is just a online forum. It's not my life. I think Naomi needs to start thinking about what life is real and what life is cyber.

That being said, I know not everybody is the same as me. I know people see each other at conferences and know them personally, and this may seem more as conversing with friends than conversing with these imaginary people online that keep answering my questions.
