I know there are probably quite a few of you that use steam. The other day their forums were defaced. They have discovered that the user database was also accessed.

    The credit card info is supposed to have been encrypted but probably still a good idea for those that have used their card with steam to keep an eye on their accounts. Also a good idea to change steam forum passwords regardless if one uses it, as well as steam account passwords and any logins that share that password.
