As other pc users might have noticed the steam forums have been down for about a week. No idea what information might be compromised, although supposedly credit card information was in the database hackers raided. *mutters* Can't any of these companies keep private information private?

Anyhow I am wondering if the steam issues are going to negatively impact skyrim? Needing to download patches or change login information etc.

I wouldn't think so. What's happened has already happened, just change your password

Steam forums and the steam store is kept seperately for obvious reasons.
