Just use the forgot password feature and it will automatically reset your password with random numbers.

What's the big rush? Scared someone is going to login to your GomTV account and WATCH SOME VODS!? OH DEAR GOD.

As long as your Paypal/e-mail passwords don't match your GomTV password, you're fine.
I'm not even bothering to change my password because it's exclusive to GomTV.net.

I´ve always used my twitter account to watch GSL, does anyone know if this affected that aswell? Probably didnt but even if I´ve already changed the passwords. Easily done since I use a lot of different passwords for different things.

So, if you used facebook to log in, you are safe? Or am I getting things wrong?
The truth is, Yagami-kun, I suspect that you may in fact be Kira.

They already have it, if you change it, they will still have the old one and they might also get the new one. That's why you're not allowed to change it. GOM must fix the exploit, else it's useless changing pw.

I am always hesitant to make accounts for random websites and really didnt want to make one for gom but it was the only way to watch GSL after gom prohibited restreams.

At least now I know I wasn't being overly paranoid.

Awesome. This is definitely the first thing I wanted to read this morning -.- Thanks for the heads up guys. Hopefully GOM gets their shit together. Nothing we can do until they fix it at any rate.

I'm more amazed by the fact that they stored passwords as plain text rather than the information got stolen. Unreal.

Really is terrible for GOM though, things like this have a tendency to stick around long after they have been sorted out.

It's been like that since the beginning... they changed minor things during the first few months from sept 2010 and up... that's it...

kinda surprised they didn't bother to at least not do what sony did... with plain text...

looks like that guy has a hex editor in the background and some kanji program with at least 7000+ characters

any chance they'll change their vods to use hi10? a 350 mb h264 video could be as small as 100-120mb... while they're at it...

My email got hacked like a few days before this was posted. It kept sending ad emails to my friends on my contact list. Anyway, I'm just glad to know I didn't get a virus. ><"
