Time for everyone to change their security information for Battle.net. Looks like Blizzard got hacked (http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/securityupdate.html) and the hackers grabbed some info. Time to change the password on other services that used the same email/password combo as well. I think it is definitely wise to just use site specific passwords these days. Too many of the security breaches in the news... and these are just the ones we know about. Aaarghhh!

Dose battlenet have anything to do with BF3?

Granted I've never used battlenet so I dont think I have anything to worry about this time.

No, battle.net is used for WoW, Diablo 3, StarCraft, etc... I think you are good to go.

Ya, just Blizzard games. Robyn got her WoW account hacked and lost 73k gold. Looks like it will be restored but can't confirm until we get home form vacation.
