So, can anyone described what's going on and when it is supposed to be fixed?

He already said that passwords were salted and hashed earlier in the thread and that you didn't have to worry about passwords being compromised.

PARANOID and with good reason...
it took me a while to re-set my bitcoin address ( was online one that I later read was untrusted PRE-DDos attacks on Slush's and had the ' fun ' of waiting for confirmation emails )
so even if they did get your password, tryed to change your bitcoin wallet id, there is still hope that neither you or the attacker can get access by logging in and setting payout to some really high number ( like over 50.0 BTC )
Worst case senario.... both you and the attacker are locked out of the earned BTC until you ( or the attacker ) can convince Slush to let the coins out of the wallet.

He did get a database snapshot so there should be enough info there to see what goes where apropriatly.
I'm not too worried about possible coin theft as I am still CPU mining and have earned ( not from Slush yet, still too slow for that kind of coin ) 1/9th the BTC for what some call an ' intro GPU miner card ' and will be workin all the free BTC sites as hard as my mining rig to get as much as fast as possible to get that kind of hash power and doubt i'll ever move from Slush's pool ( unless it gets to over 50.5% )

they may be hashed and salted but were they peppered failing that can we keell the person who hacked him

Thanks

What about the um... secret URL that we were given by e-mail?

I just checked that URL, and it resolves to 95.x.x.x -- sounds like the OLD server.

Then I checked stratum.mining.cz and it resolves to the right IP address.

I've been mining at the address that starts with V for the good part of a day -- am I still going to get paid?

I'm having some troubles while setting up new database server, so all this is taking longer time than I expected. But I'm still working on it.

Thanks everyone, that explains. One more question - is there a way to check miner status/bitcoins amount mined etc? Maybe some json api is functional?

The API is offline too.
