This is a big security concern. If someone manages to get in to your account, the first thing they might do is change the password. With no email confirmation being sent, you wouldn't realize that there was a problem until you attempted to log in. I also wonder if there is a confirmation sent to the current email if that email is changed as well. Most sites worth their salt send emails if there are any substantive changes like these.

Wouldn't it wonderful if under the My Account page there was an obvious link to change the password?
1000 points isn't nearly enough for this crap.

Took this British Senior Citizen about 30 seconds, following the link from my email account. And when I wandered away, I ended up with this little banner at the top of the page. One of the simplest things I've encountered for a long while.

The plot thickens...
even though I changed and saved my new password yesterday, and it WORKED yesterday, today it kicked me off saying it was invalid, and prompted me to pick a new password.
So I picked the SAME one, and now it seems to be working fine.
So since I had to change twice, does that mean I get 2,000 points?
