As a part of usual security practices, we recently became aware that some personal information may have been compromised due to a security incident. We immediately launched an investigation into the incident and can assure you that no financial information was accessed. However, we believe that some password hashes and email addresses were affected by the compromise.


And as a network type person who has to deal with security sometimes, seriously, change your password. Especially if that WoT password is the same one you use on your online banking or other more important things :p

Oh and don't believe password hashes are unbreakable, if they get the database, its just a simple matter of brute forcing/dictionary attack on the db locally from the attackers machine. Granted, some passwords may take years to crack, but be aware :p
