Default Mods.dk advising security breach of their site

I've just been notified by mods.dk that they believe they have had a security breach (the mechanism was quite specific) and they are advising anyone who already has a profile on there to change their password on mods.dk as soon as possible.

They've also pointed out that should anyone be in the habit of using the same password or a similar password format on other sites, it would be a good idea to change the password on those sites before the hackers manage to brute-force the encrypted passwords embedded in the stolen data.
