Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Creative has great customer support

I would agree, and it's not something I expected. I expected them to be a bunch of retarded monkeys. And the reality is that some of them are, but not ALL of them 
I had an issue I contacted them about with regards to certain DVD-Audio discs and their player and the level 1 tech was not very helpful. The fact that I was able to provide info about the problem threw him off I think. After several dumb suggestions like "Try the disc in a regular CD player and tell me what happens" (I told him "Nothing, because there is no redbook layer because no hybrid DVD-A discs exist yet" and I think that just confused him more), I got passed along to the advanced support group, where I got to speak on the phone to a real person who actually knew what he was talking about. He couldn't solve my problem exactly (suspect it's an issue with a couple of the discs I have being stoopidly formatted so the hi-res stereo tracks are not in group 2 where they belong and the Creative player therefore not finding them) though he did try a couple different approaches and then promised to try to get the discs for in-house testing. I'm still waiting to hear back about whether he was able to get the discs in question to hopefully patch the player, but I was quite impressed that I got free long distance phone support for a fairly minor problem that likely doesn't affect many people.
Fast (albeit stupid) response to emails and helpful phone support. Props to Creative for that, if nothing else.
