A site I manage uses the [my\_twitter.php class](http://www.phpclasses.org/package/4075-PHP-Set-and-retrieve-Twitter-user-status.html) simply to receive tweets from one certain account. As of a few hours ago this has stopped working, it displays a wrong username / password message while the credentials are correct.

On [various websites](http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2010/08/twitter-login-errors/) I am reading about API problems but I'm not sure if the my\_twitter class needs to be replaced with another one that uses OAuth, or will the problems be resolved and my\_twitter start working again? That class is [still listed as an official library](http://dev.twitter.com/pages/libraries#php) by Twitter.

EDIT: turns out I do not need OAuth to just receive the latest tweet. <http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/users/show> This link explains things well
