patgundAstroglide tries to plug 260,000 customer data leak
"Astroglide, which was notified last week of a data breach compromising more than 260,000 records of people who ordered free samples of its products, has taken down its page for ordering the free samples and removed the last of the records from its Web site.
On Saturday we informed you — and apparently scooped everyone — that Astroglide had inadvertently published names, email and shipping addresses for tens of thousands of customers who had ordered free samples from 2003 through the present. While the company had removed most of the records from its Web site and made changes to its robots.txt file, it had left a spreadsheet containing 4,529 records online and available for download as of publication time Saturday. That last file has been removed as of Monday."
