I logged in earlier today to find that various settings had been changed: my privacy settings had been opened up to "everyone" and the language had been changed from English to Buccanneer; meanwhile I've stopped receiving notifications of account activity.  I'm assuming a site glitch or a security compromise covers all bases, though either one is slightly disconcerting.  Anybody else experienced this, or have any ideas what's behind it?  Obviously I haven't been handing my password out to anyone and my virus scanner hasn't whinged at me about anything suspect, so I'm guessing that's probably not it.

My settings have changed too, privacy and other such remain unchanged, what did change was my view settings, character encoding and so on.

Well at least it's not just me! It all sounds rather random, and there's no signs of anything untoward (yet), so I guess it's more likely to be a website gremlin than the work of a miscreant.
