Summary

An unencrypted password has been transmitted to a server which has requested that an encrypted password be used.

Details

Unencrypted passwords can be "sniffed" by an intruder, who can then access your system using a known password.

An intruder may have spoofed your address, and requested that the NT server use unencypted passwords. You should change your password, and check the Microsoft Advisory for information on which operating systems are susceptible to this attack.
