Your 14 character long password with uppercase, lowercase, symbols, and numbers isn't anything that won't fail to a sufficiently large rainbowtable attack within minutes. Sure, salting passwords makes them no stronger versus bruteforce/dictionary attacks, but adding a 20 character salt makes it significantly stronger versus rainbowtables, unless a new set of rainbowtables is generated to target that specific salt, which takes a long, long time (but can be reused for extremely fast and efficient attacks on the whole database). All the SHA algorithms also vulnerable to rainbowtables attacks. It's funny how you call out people for not knowing basic cryptography, when you yourself don't know some of the most basic attack methods. I'm not claiming to be some expert, since I'm not, but I do know that you've stated some clearly incorrect statements. That said, it's still sad that GOM stored passwords in plaintext. Just use this as an opportunity to understand the "do not resuse passwords" warning that many sites give. Hopefully it'll get resolved soon. | ||

Do they even know there's a security problem, and if so, why aren't they telling anyone? | ||
