First of all my time with GWH has been great. Goodgirl even took extra time to help transfer my jumble of domains and sort them out, leaving me with peace of mind and the start of im sure a long term business relationship.

Second... Im sure if there were any issues that were similar in nature that I would at very least receive notification of my passwords needing to be changed.

I really doubt my database passwords would be changed either... Who does that? randomly...

Nope... have never hosted with webair...

I dont see NatNet doing this... Although my experience with them is limited, I know them to be a top hosting provider with VERY limited hiccups. Let alone something this fucking stupid.

When you said compound I did not know if you meant a compound word or a compound like a prison camp.

When a host changes your passwords, they're just trying to let you know it's time for you to take the "I suck too much cock" management classes!

I had host changing all my FTP passwords so I had to edit like 60 or so entries in my FTP client, they said that there was some breach of security or whatever, I wasn't too pleased.

That would be the ONLY reason a host would ever do that with their clients I guess.
