IMZ informed me that we should all change our Bitcointalk.org passwords right now.

Really though, I'm a klutz who hardly understands these issues; but I sent the link to F.K. 'cause Uno's home base is Bitcointalk. [And I'm working hard to understand the mining issue under discussion here.]

Really, everyone should have changed their passwords when the hack was announced over a year ago. But if you haven't changed it in the last year, definitely change it now.

yea this hack is more then a year old, so if you are new to BTCTALK you don't have as much to worry about, still good to be cautious though.
