Their database for sale, I don't think they've announced this anywhere yet.

Since we're all experienced here I'm sure we'd have used different passwords there if signed up already

From the offer:

On TheRealDeal website, a vendor with a solid reputation is offering the Mac-Forums database for ~$775.00, which includes 291,214 accounts.

The Hot Scripts database, with more than a million users, is currently going for ~$1,900.00.

The Web Hosting Talk database, with 498,321 users, is also available for ~$1,900.00.

Well, I wonder if I've changed my generic pwd used on Hot Scripts 10 yrs ago. Probably not.

Just had that same thought.
With my hots riots login someone could probably access a host of sites that I haven't in a long time.  Not sure how concerning that is

Thanks for the heads up. I never post there, but had an account. Fortunately it was one of my super long random ones. I updated to an even longer one.

They're running an older version of vBulletin. That seems to be on the list of targets these days.
