Did anyone else get this email from them:

Salutations,

You are receiving this email because you have opened a ticket with our support staff in the last 6 months. cPanel, Inc. has >discovered that one of the servers we utilize in the technical support department has been compromised. While we do not >know if your machine is affected, you should change your root level password if you are not already using ssh keys. If you >are using an unprivileged account with "sudo" or "su" for root logins, we recommend you change the account password. >Even if you are using ssh keys we still recommend rotating keys on a regular basis.

>

As we do not know the exact nature of this compromise we are asking for customers to take immediate action on their own >servers. cPanel's security team is continuing to investigate the nature of this security issue.
