If they believe it came through the vBulletin software, they're welcome to contact us. If we don't hear from them, we can assume it came through another method.Comment

Why are they asking users to change their passwords? *frowns*.. granted it is best practice....ManagerJosh, Owner of 4 XenForo Licenses, 1 vBulletin Legacy License, 1 Internet Brands Suite License

If they were running an older version which did not have the improved salts, then that would be a good reason. New salts are only generated whne a user updates their password.Comment

In all this, I must say that I commend WinAmp.com for sending out the eMail.
I received it yesterday... and although one's initial reaction is "OMG"... in reality, they did the right thing.
They were upfront and honest with their community regarding the intrusion.
And I share Trevor's opinion: If they haven't contacted vB, then we shouldn't assume it was "through" vB.Disable Block Cache --- y/N
