wtf? PVR Cinemas doesn't hash + salt the passwords?

[skeletor]

I just recovered my password from PVRCinemas.com. It sends me my old password in PLAINTEXT?

WHY DON'T THEY SALT AND HASH THE PASSWORD?

Reasons to hate PVR:

1. Costly Tickets.
2. Small Screens.
3. Send the passwords in PLAIN TEXT!!

Their screen was yellowish in hue when the last time I went of Clash of the Titans.

Ynoob Yindians have developed it?

Falling coding standards are to blame. The developers need to be aware of possible security issues.

^I registered on a custom IEM website yesterday and they sent me the password in plaintext.

I think they haven't learned their lessons from recent big password leaks. I think we should make a list of non encrypted site to make awareness in our users so they will not register on these sites. Also, we can send a email to the site admin about the security concern.
