Updates



November 2, 2012 - Password Change
In a few minutes everyone logged into Rescreatu will automatically be logged out. When you attempt to log in again you will be prompted to change your password. Please do not be worried when this happens and kindly change your password.

There was a security breach which had allowed a cookie grabber to pass through our filters resulting in several accounts being compromised. Remember, all passwords saved on Rescreatu servers are encrypted and are safe. We are forcing all accounts to reset their passwords as a precaution. If your account was compromised from the cookie grabber it will be safe after changing your password. The security holes which allowed this have been patched. 

If you have any questions or need help please don't hesitate to contact a support staff member.

Well, you could just make a password with the character limit, then go into the prefences and change it again.

The automatic create-a-new-password prompt upon login has a character limit on new passwords, but the one in the preferences - password page does not. Please remove the character limit when being prompted upon login to create a new password.

Cookies are certain files that websites download onto yuor computer to make it easier to use those website. For example exiting without loggin out of Rescreatu means that when you returnt to the hompage on a later date, the website will remember your login details. I'm assuming this cookie grabber went around taking control of people's accounts that hadn't fully been logged out or by accessing Rescreatu's cookies in order to learn password details.

MissHalloween A cookie is a technical term, not the kind you bake in the oven. And a cookie grabber is like a tech spy. They rob the target's system and will sometimes make things run slower. But tech cookies are not safe. Thanks to the staff for rebuilding their security. Im glad my account wasnt a target but I feel bad for the people who where a target. :( sorry!
