IMPORTANT
Thanks TDFear for passing on this information (I will just quote most of that post)

If you are registered at any of these sites below then you need to take this message seriously
And before we go any further let me make clear that this is not meant to stimulate any inter-site feuds. Just make sure you secure your accounts.

Although it has nothing directly to do with ST, some members here may be affected.

Apparently, the problems were created at the following three sites:
- **** (****)
- Eaxposed (EAX)
- Gaming-Underground (GU)

Someone has made the passwords of the users on these sites public, many with the IP address as well.

People who have registered at one of these sides are strongly advised to change their password! If the password you have on those sites is used anywhere - forums, msn, hotmail, XWIS, then you need to change your passwords.

For obvious reasons, I will not link to the source with passwords but take this very seriously!

How to change your password on this forum
Go to: My Controls => Options => Change Password



Everyone with Mod positions or private staff access on ST needs to respond to the PM from me immediately

Damn, why did I register there? I don't even post there. =(

I found out my pass on **** is the same as my MSN pass... but that's all I could think of. =( Hope I didn't use it for anything else...

Does anyone know if I'm registered on GU or EAX...? =|

Good thing I haven't even looked at those sites, but yeah anyone who has then please take Don's warning seriously. If you have generic pass's the same for many things then people could do lots of **** like steal from paypal or buy stuff on web shops you're registered on.

Why even bother going to there? What is so special to find on a "cheat site" beside cheats? :wacko:

when i joined i had no idea what a site ment to be , let alone what cheats and hacking tools were
juts when i was there for about 6 weks i realized what happened in a certain section , that was called the golden section
at that time i made some friends overthere , i liked the topics that were made there and i felt "home "
it may surprise u , but there r lots of members on this site and on others that were members on EAX too :)

Let me guess, no let me tell u how u find eax,as itz just the truth, months ago (i donno exactly how long ago), u were playing ra2, u were in the lobby, or hosting a game, then u saw 1 of those spam botz of eax spamming sumthing like: "all ur ra2 hacks ect.ect. go to eax.com or w/e", now i wonder why u even went to eax then? if u dont want to do anything with cheats.

lets not turn this into a slag off the cheat sites topic. the point is, anyone registered on any of those sites needs to make sure their password for those sites is not the same as any of their other accounts anywhere else, especially strike-team.

all thos registered at EAX should have gotten a e-mail from the admins...they changed servers to help stop another hack attempt...and with the cheating issue EAX dose not just have cheats they have tools to help do things downloads for stuff...and chating :)
