The moon can produce interesting optical effects when conditions are right. The most common of which are moon rings, moon bows, which are similar to rainbows, moon dogs and moon pillars. A rainbow is produced when sunlight is refracted through water droplets - A similar effect is produced when moon light refracts through ice crystals. Folklore has it that a ring around the moon signifies bad weather is coming, and in many cases this may be true.

maybe this could be the problem,

TextNo safety on the moon: strong CME could sandblast the entire lunar surface Posted on December 7, 2011 December 7, 2011 – SPACE – Solar storms and associated Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) can significantly erode the lunar surface according to a new set of computer simulations by NASA scientists. In addition to removing a surprisingly large amount of material from the lunar surface, this could be a major method of atmospheric loss for planets like Mars that are unprotected by a global magnetic field

Was it a cold clear night sky where you were lastnight? If so that would explain why the moon appeared brighter to you, nothing to worry about

No problem. I have re-read my initial posts and apologise if they sounded slightly hostile. That wasn't my intention.

Another point to mention, has the weather suddenly shifted "wintery" where you are? Here in the UK the weather had been very mild up until two weeks ago (very late autumn this year) when it very suddenly switched to winter mode (ie clear nights are much colder). This is usually due to a change in the origin of the dominant air mass (from warm southern air masses to colder polar air). This does generally mean that the sky is much clearer. Visibility is much better in winter than in summer due to no warm air disturbances. This may make some account for the sudden perceived increase in brightness.
