"In brief: an sql injection attack by a botnet on wednesday afternoon
obtained a large number of email / password pairs. The ones they
obtained were basically random. So they cover the entire 10 year history
of the membership but sprinkled randomly. Some are very old accounts,
some are new accounts, some inactive or deleted."
Time to change your password.

Just as well I use a weak password there. I'll pass on changing it to one of the stronger ones I use elsewhere though.
No need anyway, where passwords were taken they automagically changed them it seems.

Was any password and email used by the bad guy(s) to login at dslreports.com?
No. All user passwords obtained were changed fast enough that they could be used.
Bad that the hack happened, gold star on response.
