Sorry to the folks in my ad Yahoo groups. Someone in Paraguay celebrated St Paddy's by hacking that account. Thank you mackiedockie for spotting it. I think I've changed all the passwords, finally. It took an hour. Computers are such time savers.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that. I hope they didn't manage to get into anything sensitive.

Thanks. Nothing sensitive. Just annoying, but I knew I needed to change that weak password, stronger now.

Love the icon:-)

I was reading an article the other day about the sort of software that's available to those who are determined to hack. It's scary how good such programs are nowadays. They can crack almost any password in a matter of hours. Could be that the next-gen systems will dispense with passwords entirely.

(Manolito says we should just do a coded knock on the door, and whisper "Let me in!", but I have my doubts that this would work with e-mails).
