Alright after I logged in I went up to preferences and made a Master Password, was that what I was supposed to do? I don't like having to enter the master pass every time I want to login, there's no option to save the pass - it's like a password overtop of the alpine password, so alpine isn't changed. Every time I type in anything other than alpine in that slot, it says it needs a pre-authenticated password.

i dont really know how to do all this stuff. besides, these worms aren't in the usa, only around europe.

Has anyone created an app to change your passwords? I know the terminal and commands are not the complex to do, but still. Easy is Easy.

to change root password:

* install and run "Mobile Terminal"
* type su root at the shell prompt and tap enter
* type passwd and tap enter
* enter alpine for your old password
* enter new password
* enter new password again to confirm

Uuhu...I have another worm :S
but this one changes the default root password, so I cannot undo it...
Not sure what it does after that, nothing good I suspect.
Normally I change it, but I just restored it...and know this happened xD.
And to make it even worse, my ISP closed me off of the internet to retain the virus from spreading :/

Oh man I just love The Netherlands.....

I read somewhere a couple of days ago (you'd have to google for it to confirm this) that the worm that redirects you to a fake bank website also changes your root password to "ohsh1t" (but the 1 is really an i, you get the idea). I don't know if this is the worm you have, but I'm just trying to help out...
