Well, the hits just keep on coming today. In all the din from the LinkedIn data breach I almost missed that the dating site eHarmony had its user accounts compromised as well.

From eHarmony:

After investigating reports of compromised passwords, we have found that a small fraction of our user base has been affected. We are continuing to investigate but would like to provide the following actions we are taking to protect our members.

As a precaution, we have reset affected members passwords.

Those members will receive an email with instructions on how to reset their passwords.

The blog post goes on to give advice on how to use and create strong passwords.

I did find this screen cap from the site amusing.

Interesting side note. I noticed that eHarmony has updated their Privacy and Terms of Service pages.
