It means you should change it. Security purposes.

It's an erroneous message that pops up sometimes. Juast change your password and you'll be safe.

Not erroneous. Passwords should be changed every 6 months.

I meant that the number of days doesn't match the length of time since the password was activated.

? I've had the same one since I joined. You supplied it; shouldn't you be the one to change it? I have no idea how.
