I lost roughly 2000 USD from my MT.Gox account at 08:40 JST on the 31th of may 2012.

A lot of that going on.

And on other services as well.  Here same thing happened to some GLBSE users:

In none of these was the person using multi-factor authentication.  Mt. Gox has had Yubikey support for a while.  Mt. Gox accounts now support Google Authenticator:

And another report.  Mt. Gox now has Google Authenticator support, for mobile (Android, iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch (any iOS), BlackBerry).  Use it, love it!
