You should only be alarmed if it happened again and it wasn't you the person who changed that. But since the problem is now solved you needn't worry @Yourgor: No, you get that e-mail whenever you change your password. You should only be alarmed if it happened again and it wasn’t you the person who changed that.

But since the problem is now solved you needn’t worry

For example, their whole www psn sign system is open to exploits by phishers. I was to write an article about it long before this PSN problem but since this latest incident tops any security problem there was no point anymore. Basically, they let you sign in using iframes within websites like resistance.com and killzone.com . That should be a no go from the start. The way they let you log in on supported sites make it possible for phishers to deceive even seasoned users. Just look at how well facebook login's are done, and implement a similar system.
