aruru: (slightly worried)
Swiped this just now from [livejournal.com profile] eclective: Guys, if you use Gmail for anything, especially if you browse other sites while you have your account logged in, CHECK YOUR FILTER AND FORWARDING SETTINGS. There's an exploit (now fixed) that let hackers set up auto-forwarding in your account, thus allowing them to say, get forwards of your personal emails with password and account information on them and the like. The link provides a personal account from a victim of the exploit as well as information on how to check your own account(s) for it.

My accounts were clean, thankfully, but it's still a rather worrisome hack and I think worth a look into it.
