Has Capital One Visa frozen your credit card account due to a merchant security breach as of Nov 29, 2007?

Capital One mass-canceled a number of their credit cards due to a merchant security compromise. They claim this is necessary to protect their account holders from fraud. However, Capital One has yet to release the merchant’s name. This merchant is a security liability and should be avoided. Does anyone know who this merchant is? Serious replies only, please don’t speculate. Thanks.

Sounds like they have a batch of cards which have a security issue and risk of fraud and so they are protecting themselves against it.
