Deleted7943927User Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 So paint me wrong but you peoples are too much foccused on the USER end but the secury problem HAPPENED on YOUR end... this is true majestic. But the question is did the attack really happened? I mean while would be obvious that any person with intend would use this chance (big and unnecessary changes) to act is still kinda... strange is the word?

Unless you are the hacker and authenticated the PayPal login so you could hack yourself, or, you got a notification about an attempted PayPal login and replied to accept that it was you when it wasn't you, then it could be the same incident. (Unless you have no 2nd authentication on your PayPal or email, which you absolutely should.)Unless that's the case, I'm fairly positive that is not correlated.

It encrypts and stores passwords in any number of categories just like any other PW manager and can be accessed from anywhere via OneDrive. The main file is on your PC or device and uses its own undocumented password (that can be printed out for remembering during setup) for access. It's great, I recommend it wholeheartedly as it is also FREE with the added bonus of protection and access.LastPass is another good and free password generator / vault.

If it's this one here , there's not one word about a security breach in it. Do you have something different?

AngryKarakuri Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 (edited) NexusMods, never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you, never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye. Now I see why you wanted us to change our passwords and stuff. Thanks. I'll keep sticking around. :psyduck: Edited December 20, 2019 by AngryKarakuri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congratulations to Reptileye for proving time and time again that he is nothing but an absolute macaco, and has offered nothing to the modding community that is worthwhile.
