 The Internet Storm Center is reporting news that some [iTunes accounts have potentially been compromised](http://isc.sans.edu/diary.html?storyid=9136). It appears that some 'up-to-no-good' types are using compromised iTunes accounts to make application/book purchases in the iTunes store, thereby boosting certain books and apps in search rankings.

If you have an iTunes account, I'd recommend changing your password **IMMEDIATELY** and possibly removing any stored payment information (such as credit card).
