>    Identity theft protection firm LifeLock -- a company that's
>    built a name for itself based on the promise of helping
>    consumers protect their identities online -- may have actually
>    exposed customers to additional attacks from ID thieves and
>    phishers. The company just fixed a vulnerability on its site
>    that allowed anyone with a Web browser to index email
>    addresses associated with millions of customer accounts, or to
>    unsubscribe users from all communications from the company.
