Problem with CAO ....?

SO i logged into my email a couple of minutes ago and i had an email from the CAO. It said that my password had been changed at 3 o clock this morning etc. etc.

THing is at 3 this morning i was out at my grad! I never had a password for my CAO account...( which is silly i know) ... But still, this is freaking me out... Ive sent an email to the CAO about it but i dont know whats going on...Gah.....

Any Ideas?

Update:

Ok, so i took to Google and found a website which stated that CAO sent out emails to all applicants with new passwords as a precaution. I logged in now and everything seems fine, thank God.

    ring them directly & see what's happening, it could be related to the attack on the website a couple of days ago

    whatever you do, don't use any links in the email you've received & don't reply to it

    If you are tempted to log in, google the website or type in the address yourself - again, don't use any links in the email received

    That's odd alright. I just checked mine and all is fine, never recieved any email and the system at the CAO site doesn't say my passwords been changed or anything. Could simply have affected some folks and not others. Yeah, don't click on any links in the email, contact the CAO and if you can't get through by phone then email them.

    You should get in, change the password again as soon as possible and call them straight away.

    Edit: Oh yes I forgot about that malicious software they were dealing with..

    Edit2: I just checked and I have one too so it must be the virus! I hope you didn't click a link. :(
