| Yeah, it's definitely a far cry from the Sony kerfuffle.
Steam Guard is actually even more comprehensive than that too - it'll activate if either your system OR IP changes. I had to enter steamguard for both the OSX and Windows7 partitions on my laptop. Or if I use the other two computers in the house. |

Because they both got hacked, duh. They're totally the same.
Kind of wish they'd been a bit faster on the uptake, but when it takes weeks to months normally and they did it under 7 days I'll take it. ____________________ You might think that this layout is specifically EarthBound themed, but it might just be a reference to one of my favorite games. |

| I already saw.
They hacked in the right moment when the TF2 come a really-mess-up and buggy update, that I would sent some bugs on it. |

| So it also got Steam. Nothing to be ashamed of, as there is no 100% security but strongly depends how a company reacts on accidents like that.
It just relies if Valve really put more efforts or measures to protect their service now. I don't recall having a Steam board account, but still might consider changing my password for logging in into the client. Although there's only Portal 1 and Team Fortress on it, while no other payment information is entered (plus it uses other passwords than on pages with payment information). If they breached into Amazon or Ebay it'd would be bad, although I think my passwords are strong enough - if it is not using a security hole on those servers as well  ____________________  |

I'm still wondering if we're going to get some kind of silly compensation for this ____________________ You might think that this layout is specifically EarthBound themed, but it might just be a reference to one of my favorite games. |

Never happened to me. Maybe a problem with the payments themselves...
