I'm so absolutely lost here... Could you give a few more details.

What userid is this? The email adress used in registration? Something else? How does the mapping MAC -> userid work?

Assume someone has my userid - what account can he take over? And how? And where?

Why are there no passwords involved? I figured that you need the password to log into iDS - at least it didn't work with a password typo in the Iliad's preferences.

What secure keys? I always assumed that a pair of unsecure ID and secret password is a secure key.
