Yup.

I run a (smaller!) forum myself and I was reading about the issue and saw your name here and thought I would make sure you guys were aware.

A cursory check of the posted usernames doesn't ring a bell though... just try here: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/search.php

those usernames are server usernames, not forum usernames. They indicate root access. This has hit some big forums and I just wasn't sure if you guys saw it or not. Potentially could involve theft of everyone's user ID's and password combo
