>>Yesterday I went to log in to my account and got the error dialog for a bad password. I used the I forgot my password option and the password I was sent was not the password I have been using. I used the password sent in email and I was able to log in and then changed the password to my usual one. The problem I have is that I have no idea how my password got changed in the first place. It was either something automatic at UT or someone cracked my account and changed the pasword on me. Do you have any idea what may have happened?

>We increased the level of security going to full encryption, with case sensitivity. So, the password remained as is in the table. However, before, it was uppercased automatically, which is probably why you thought you had it properly entered. The update of password you did then change it to your own casing preference. :)

So was it stored as all upper case in the table? Mine is suddenly all upper case, but I know when I joined I used all lower case. No big deal, but it took me a half dozen tries before I tried all upper case.
