    Is there ANY way to change my "member's area" password to something I can remember?

    I don't think you'll be permitted to select your password.

      No, for security reasons we can not allow this.

        So, EVERYTIME someone forgets or loses their password, you guys have to generate a new one?

        WOWEE!

          It's not as difficult as it may seem, I'm sure it's at least semi-automated by now.

              i hate it too... especially when i bounce bettwen my laptop, my desktop, and my work machine.

              depending where i am, i usually have to do a password re-gen... and then i'm screwed in my other 2 locations as well. lol

                NEVER save your password in txt files on your PC in order to avoid them to be stolen by a trojan application. You can just write it on a peace of paper with out any notices about how to use this information. It is most secure method, excepting your own memory...

                      Yes, it is automated, users can just request a newly generated one if needed.
