I goto LfS, i then goto search for servers, and it sais GAME password does not match, then i goto www.liveforspeed.net (http://www.liveforspeed.net), i try and log on there, Your attempt to login failed.
Make sure that you are using your WEBpassword and not your GAMEpassword to login here.
I then go and click retrieve my login details.
Then it sais "The email address danielw597@hotmail.com was not found in our database."
I've not changed anything on my profile, Game nor Web passwords .. it was working for me a few hours ago, i went out to visit my family, came back, and it sais that the GAME password does not match. Please, can someone help me, or atleast an admin change my password if it HAS been changed.
Thanks
Daniel

I suggest emailing the devs. and/or rename your password. both game and web. see if hte problem goes away then change the password back. or lock and unlock your LFS game. Emailing hte devs is problibly the best thing to do.

If indeed your account has been hacked then i would expect it to be a matter between you them.
Edit: too slow.

I don't think its possible unless someone hacked hte LFS main server.
I bet the Devs keep a hand written copy of hte important details or its all on a computer not connected to the internet

Your account hasn't been hacked, but instead your computer might have been compromised with keyloggers or Sony rootkits. Or a mischievous family member could have changed your passwords if you forgot to log out before leaving the house.

Danielw597 - that is not the signup email address you used. I'll PM you the address you used, rather than post it here for all to see.

Hmmm, the email in that PM i have never heard of, someone must have got into my account and changed the email :shrug: I've always used danielw597@hotmail.com for LFS
