I'm sure we've all experienced this!
"Sorry your password has expired - you must register a new one"
Did someone discover my password and hack my computer?
No, but your password has expired - you must get a new one.
Why then do I need a new one as that one seems to be working pretty good?
Well, you must get a new one as they automatically expire every 30 days
Can I use the old one and just re-register it?
No, you must get a new one.
I don't want a new one as that is one more thing for me to remember.
Sorry, you must get a new one.
