Time to change your e-bay passwords

Yes, they got hacked...

Quote:
EBay has asked users to change their passwords following a cyberattack that compromised one of its databases.
The US firm said the database was hacked between late February and early March, and had contained encrypted passwords and other non-financial data.
The auction site added that it had no evidence of there being unauthorised activity on its members' accounts.
However, it said that changing the passwords was "best practice and will help enhance security for eBay users".

Thanks to your heads up I changed my password. And now wonderful ebay a few days later sends me an email saying I should change my password when I already have, and now it's bugging me on the home page to change it!
Stupid ebay!

Ditto.

Might have to bloody change it again just to get rid of the nag screen.
