Perhaps I'm misremembering, but I coulda sworn that affiliate passwords were displayed... is the encryption something that's changed in the last eighteen months?

And even if passwords are not available, I do, certainly, remember the 'become reseller' option... can affiliates examine their own password via their account's interface, or no? If "no," maybe the case is that I've misremembered, and would appreciate confirmation on that.

Been awhile, and I don't have an updated version of NATs in front of me to play around with.
