I suggest that all subscribers change their passwords on other sites that contain confidential data if:-  
  
  
  
They use the same email as login for C2  
  
  
  
and  
  
  
  
They use the same password.  
  
  
  
I know many of you do.  
  
  
  
Be careful

Oh,  
  
  
  
I forgot to add that some of you will use the same password for your email account.  
  
  
  
Change it.  
  
  
  
May I suggest holding all passwords in a password safe, and having a different one for each site.  
  
  
  
Happy New Year

You should never use your email password as the password on another site.
