Reset password

I just got an email saying someone tried resetting my password for this account. Shame on you. I may not be active but I certainly pay attention to my emails. :roll:

Does this mean we now are safe from account hacking as in the email owner can now only change pass?

No, the person used the "forgot my password" function. If they wanted to change the password they could still do it without email confirmation of any kind, and you can change the email at will as well.
