Failed Logins

A password attack is indicated by a series of failed logins within a short period of time.

You will get a note in your news telling you how many failed attempts have been at your account: If there is a series of failed attempts that you do not remember and is not highlighted in orange then it is quite probable that the attacker successfully reached your account.

In the event of this happening you
Should Immediately change your password via the News>Settings page.

It is also advisable to change your password after every password attack.

Note: The hardest passwords to break are those containing both letters and numbers and which only mean something to you.

Note: If you forget your password and fail to log in first time this will also show up however it will say "2 failed logins" or however many attempts you made and it will have the time next to them allowing you to identify between a password attack and the forgetting of a password.
