Second Life anounced they changed the security code because some guys accessed the Second Life database through the web servers on September 6. Players can reset the password in their official site.

Late last night (early this morning?) the web team completed a change to the code that will give you a few more options for resetting your passwords on the website. If you a) don¡¯t have access to the email address on file with us (or the address doesn¡¯t exist), or b) can¡¯t remember the answer to your security question, read on¡­

Go to the password change request page and enter your Second Life name. You¡¯ll get a page that says information was sent to your email (Instruction Sent). Choose the link at the bottom of the page that says: Email no longer active? Click here.

You¡¯ll be taken to a new page that will give you several options for validating your account.

If you aren¡¯t forwarded to the new page, or if you are but none of these options work for you, we will have Lindens available on Monday who can help you on the phones.
