New Security Bug

[Ron]

I'm not extremely knowledgable on computer security and the many issues involved but I received a notice today from Agile Bits (1Password) that this could be a problem that needs attention since I believe it could compromise a lot of private information on a lot of websites. I changed many of my passwords today at their recommendation. Read these articles and decide for yourself:

With so many breach's mostly yahoo. it's best to change once a week, As when the company's post that they been hacked during a certain period of time you can be at ease knowing that you changed your password an the likely hood that you are affected is very small. altho most security officials say to change every 30-60 days best to do it more often.
