Yeah I would suggest changiing the password too. But I think the mtgox would use multi-round hashing to protect stupid people that use 'password' as a password.

I fear nothing! Say it. I fear nothing!

I had all the bitcoin I own taken from my account, around 12BTC. I think it may have been a brute-force attack.

Seems appropriate http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=19360.0

Isn't it that even if they did manage to get a copy of the user database they would only find the password hashes and not the actual passwords? So if you had a secure password, there is probably nothing to worry about.

regardless, I would change password. Just in case. Takes 1 minute.

This is not me, just came across it on hacker news and thought we should know here.

I have hacked into mtgox database. Got a huge number of logins password combos.
Mtgox has fixed the problem now. Too late, cause I've already got the data.
 
Will sell the database for the right price.
