BTC-e is reporting on their page the Vircurex was hacked. Vircurex says that receiving wallet addresses have been changed due to a security problem.

Does anyone have further news about what is happening with that exchange?

Due to a security breach we had to reset all wallet addresses of all coins. You cannot user the old addresses anymore to deposit funds. Should you need to transfer funds from a source which does not allow you to change the deposit address (e.g. mmpool.bitparking.com), then contact us and we will work out a solution.
It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

I can not login to Vircurex since the hack, and if I try to renew my password I don't receive the renewal email. Costumer support not replying neither on email, skype nor PM. Any idea how can I get hold of them?

If everyone is thinking outside the box, there is a new box.
