Compromised Neopets Accounts?

I attempted to log into Neo today - I was actually online earlier and did dailies etc... to find Incorrect Password messages on both my main and AAA accounts...

Obviously my first step was to change my passwords (I have access to both associated emails so that went smoothly), but immediately after changing my passwords, I COULD NOT USE the new passwords I had reset.

At this point I wondered "wtf did i download or who the F grabbed my cookies or how did I get keylogged??"

Well, with no alternative I just tried Googling "Neopets changed password and still cannot log in" and found a recent (1 month ago) thread that sounds like maybe it could still be relevant?
(not sure if i'm allowed to post a reddit thing... i've never used reddit before so not sure if it's something we're allowed to link to)
http://www.reddit.co...hange_your_neo/

 

I wondered if someone had done something like this again, accessing account info through Neopets directly, or if it was just myself.

Does anyone else have any insight? Otherwise I'm going to have to do some malware scans etc and see where I get...

    It's a glitch, it's happened before and all you need to do is wait a little. TNT is just being annoying and not fixing everything right now.

    I don't see an issue with him starting a thread :/
    His post had substance and more than one sentence.
