Hi

Today I wanted to send 1 bitcoin from my Armory account to online Blockchain account. Transaction was signed, but unfortunatelly I found that additional 9 BTS were sent to unknown address.

Does someone know what were wrong?

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

9 Satoshis? or 9 BTC?

If it was Satoshis, probably a transaction fee.

that sounds like your change address - once the output was made, the wallet generates a new address to send the extra coins to.

That is extremely strange.  Did you contact the Armory about it?

No address was changed - 9 BTC!

If those 9 BTC are exactly the remainder. (Eg. you had 10 BTC in your Armory, you sent 1 BTC to some addres, then those (remaining) 9 BTC were returned as "change = small coins" to you.) Those new addres with 9 BTC should be under your control. What does Armory balance say to you? If it is 9 BTC then you are ok.
If you are unsure, post that "new" BTC addres here and we can check the transaction in blockchain.
