Valve Under Ransom

Apparantly, a hacker bypassed VALVe security and got "special" access to all of the internal information at VALVe, including but not limited to EP2, Credit Cards of Users, Financial Information, and other things. Here is one of the articles. People who bought on Steam should be wary (I am, I bought CS:S on Steam ).
