And for those who are unaware, .NET password reset is kind of nice -
it doesn't just need your cc info, but a "secret password" also (of
your choosing). cc info, sadly, is *almost* public info (if you use
the cc a lot).

.NET password reset now works (for me at least). Can that be
considered a bug? i.e., that microsoft fixed a bug? ;-) ...just
joking. Actually, if they broke more things than fixed, then yes it
would be considered a bug.

MSN's "new password reset" (mpr) still doesn't work worth diddly.
