As soon as I heard about this hack (last friday?), the first thing I did was sign up for LifeLock and set up my accounts. LifeLock was being hammered at the time, but I got thru.
When I got home, I then put freezes thru "the big three", then after reading a couple of articles, on Sunday I put freezes in with Innovis and ChexSystems. I also ran my credit report using TransUnion (leaving me with two more runs from the other two during the year).
That's basically all you can do. You can also do this, I suppose:

I've read anecdotes saying that it's legit and good insurance (but LifeLock already offers a similar thing on the level I signed up for).
I guess part of what I am saying is that the story broke, and there was a small rush, but I got in - then when Monday rolled around and the story grew legs - well, we're now seeing DDOS-like failures...
