Well after reading ALOT of threads about this issue, I have come to the conclussion that apparently the system at nexon is programmed to block the IP whenever you change the passwords of multiple accounts at once... My Advice? DO NOT CHANGE ALL THE PASSWORDS AT ONCE. Wait maybe an hour...or two....maybe five... or even a day if you're paranoid! Think of it... If a hacker knew the info of some accounts... what would they do? CHANGE THE PASSWORDS! So if changing the passwords of many accounts, the system will take that as "suspicious activity" and block your IP from MS... I'm not 100% sure about this... but i could say it's a 91.5% Hope this helps for you guys! Edit: Some people might say they only changed the password to ONE account, but many times to that same account... which the system might also identify as a hacker

Well just try not to change many passwords at once...not even 2.. Wait a while and try changing again.
