I wouldn't demonize VROC in general, despite our password probs. It's not a professional product (keep in mind it's free for that matter...) and may be a bit immature, but it's never caused any serious problems.
As for your trouble, Esben, I haven't been able to reproduce it. There are a few settings in GTP's core.ini and player.ini files that could be the cause for that. I'll post the sections of these files here that could be related to this problem, first up is core.ini:

I don't think VROC can be in any way held responsible for a change in these files. If you find something, let us know what it was.
