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!!

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

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.
