    As many of you have noted, this was fixed shortly after it was posted to
    this list. Microsoft also appears to have locked out any accounts of
    people whom they feel may have been affected by this, therefore anyone
    who "tested" on their own account can expect that their old and new
    passwords will not work.
    
    Most of the information is on many news sites or channels. As such, this
    thread can be considered dead.
