I don't know if anyone has tried to get into my account, but then again, I never connected my email with the NIWA forums. 

As long as you keep a secure password, then the hacker(s) won't be able to succeed unless he/she/they do some sort of mega server hack or something, which can only be accessed by a select few.  Considering the hacker(s) are trying multiple logins, with repeated fails, it can be more or less safe to say that a secure password is all that is required for the member-in-question.

The staff is going further, however, working to solve the issue.  So, you should be getting less emails like this soon enough.

Why haven't I been targeted?
That's anybodies guess. I would like to note, that I also have not been targeted, and.. This isn't just a problem here, other forums have been having the problem as well.

A patch was installed, which should prevent future login attempts from bots and/or hackers.  If you continue to get these emails from this point on, please say so.  Otherwise, the issue is more of less solved.  Thanks Adam for the installation, Moydow for the patch, and whoever else!
