Yeah, I didn't go crazy with the conversion. I just did a basic conversion to get it working so people weren't inconvenienced when upgrading. However, if you rely on auto-populate or CoolKey heavily, you should go through your accounts manually to lock them down with more concise patterns.
Perhaps you would be kind enough to explain that? Or perhaps you would explain more fully what happens when one installs 1.6 when the user has been using 1.5.1?
Why do I ask? Well, if one reads what you posted, it would appear that existing passwords are changed when one installs 1.6 in place of 1.5.1. If that is so, then how can one continue to use PWM?
I'm not at all certain that what you said is what you meant, but the statement about "...a basic conversion..." certainly says, at least in English (rather than `computerese') that there are some substantial changes made when updating to PWM 1.6. IF that is so, then I'd certainly want to know first what is going to happen to my existing passwords, for which I do use auto-populate and, when necessary, CookKey, and I'd want to know the details of any such changes before I update.
