PPrune Account Hacked?

For the second time I have logged into PPrune after a few days away and the "Last Visit" time in the upper right box indicates I logged in today which is certainly not the case.

This happened before and I changed my password, but it is happening again. Is there any reasonable explanation or has my account been hacked?

I don't access PPrune on shared computers and the passwords are a mix of upper and lower case and symbols.

The advice of those in the know would be appreciated.

Cheers
Jemy

I suspect it's more likely to be a server cock-up, according to your statistics, you last posted on the 28th Nov 2011, at 21:48

There's been several problems with time stamps and database errors, so I suspect it's just SNAFU rather than enemy action.
