Same problem here. It requires me to enter the current password in order to change the password. If I knew it I wouldn't need to change it. Been like this for months, I have to use the one time link to get it. 

Yeah, same situation here. Pretty lame software design since it can never work. Most sites like this that force logins only so they can track you send an email that simply let's you enter a new password. Perfectly secure for this kind of thing. Silly waste of time. I

Please do that. I got LastPass fixed, and now when I try the reset password link I get in an email from Seeking Alpha, somehow it automatically fills in the password and I don't get to see it. LastPass doesn't seem to recognize the change so it's not captured.

If you can change it an email that to me it would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your attention and assistence.

oops, I may be cross posting my problems. My real problem is that I can't get LastPass to work. Sorry to bother you with this. I'll probably just create a new Seeking Alpha account for now. 

SA, thanks for your reply, it's appreciated. I have tried the Forgot password, which triggers the SMS message for two step authorization. But I never get the SMS message. Perhaps my phone number is incorrect but I can't find a way to change that without being able to get the SMS message. Maybe the easiest fix would be to turn off 2 step so I can get a new password and go from there.
