TheFirstMonk August 9, 2012 Share TheFirstMonk Member August 9, 2012 http://kotaku.com/5933454/blizzard-network-breached-change-your-passwords If I could remember my password, I'd change it (it'll come to me eventually). I don't have a lot to lose (as far as I know), but for those of you with WoW or Diablo 3 games, you might want to change your passwords as soon as possible.

ValenAlvern August 10, 2012 Share ValenAlvern Member August 10, 2012 (edited) God serves those idiots right for saying "Blizzard servers cant be hacked" Who says that honestly, thats like saying "Please hack me!" Just because Gabe says it, doesnt mean you should say that either http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXkTMhp7QFI Edited August 10, 2012 by ValenAlvern 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VooDooPC August 10, 2012 Share VooDooPC Member August 10, 2012 (edited) that's a pretty cool solution. wonder how you would move to a diff computer? It's pretty easy. With Steam Guard enabled, anyone attempting to login as you from an unrecognized computer or browser must first provide additional, one-time authorization. A special access code will be sent to your contact email address, and this code must be entered into Steam before your first login on an unfamiliar computer is complete. You will also be notified if any login attempts from computers other than those you've authorized occur. Steam Guard essentially acts as a form of "User Rights Management," where you as the user have greater control over access to your stuff. The Intel thing is Steam Guard.

Cinkadeus August 10, 2012 Share Cinkadeus Member August 10, 2012 I had to do it on all my PC's I use steam on. I've usually gotten the email with the code almost instantly. I've never had to wait to log in. Mild inconvenience for tighter security. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroDamage August 10, 2012 Share ZeroDamage Member August 10, 2012 Do more than just change your password. Change your secret question too: https://isc.sans.edu/diary/Blizzard+Compromise--+what+they+missed+in+their+user+communication/13870 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
