Earlier this week<\/a>, DPS Computing reported how a well known security employee of firm F-Secure was sensationally booted off the website (before being reinstanted) for attempting to warn its users about a phising website.<\/p>\nNow Twitter has once again come under fire as users have found that the seemingly innocent process of changing ones username, e-mail address or password has resulted in them being locked out of their accounts.\u00a0 This has caught out both experienced users and newbies alike.<\/p>\n
Does Twitter have a solution?\u00a0 It would appear not as the firms current advice is “Don’t do it” – referring to the process of changing a username, e-mail address or password.<\/p>\n
The problem has now persisted for a week according to early reports of the problem acknowledged by the social networking site who at first suggested that users were at fault due to a cacheing issue.<\/p>\n
