Dropbox made me change my password!

[SimpleSi]

Needed to logon to my dropbox account via the web and it made me change my password - said I'd had it for too long and then had the cheek to say that my 9 symbol password was weak!!!

 

But it hasn't affected any of my currently logged in sessions (I use it across all my school servers) but just a heads up to everyone (unless I've been caught out my some clever ManinMiddle password attack!)

I had to last week, changed it to the same as what I was using and it accepted it!

Gave up dropbox a long time ago with google drive and skydrive catching them up.

I had to change mine as well, but changed it to what it already was and everything worked.
