Do we have to be cautious?

I changed my password....

I would reccomend changing your passwords if they are the same anywhere else.
I know a few people have already been hacked.

it depends.. if the database password is md5 encrypted...it should be fine. If it is clear text, then you should change it asap. Confirm with their team.

There has already been a handful of account hijackings and disabling. Better to be safe than sorry.

2011-08-29 - It has come to our attention that there was a recent security breach on TranceTraffic.
Email addressed might have been taken and a number of accounts were temporarily hijacked, but passwords were NOT compromised.

It's quite scary though that even the SysOp's account is being hacked :/ (banned)
