Aren't double hashed passwords only more secure than single hashed passwords when the attacker doesn't know they are double hashed?

Now since there probably isn't any financial info (bank acct #, cc # etc...) attached to TGT accounts, I doubt they would spend the energy to brute force a bunch of salted double hashed account passwords.

That being said, if you use the same password on other more sensitive sites, I would still suggest changing them.

As in FOREVER or just for a while? There was a great thread on beef ribs in the off topic I just can't live though :smilelol5:
Not forever, but until year hear that it has been restored and verified by the host.

EDIT: BTW, it is definitely no guarantee, but LULZ MOON (or Myanmar Muslim Cyber Force) that hacked the forum is known for hacks to raise awareness and not to introduce malware. Regardless its a good idea to avoid the site until you hear it is restored.
