Please take some time today and change your password for hotmail, gmail, yahoo.

Microsoft has confirmed that thousands of Windows Live accounts have been compromised with their passwords posted online.

Gmail and Yahoo are also affected by the compromise. Change all of your passwords NOW!

Some does and don'ts:

* Do change your passwords on a regular basis (every six months or so)
* Do use long complex pass-phrases rather than passwords where you can
* Do change all of your passwords if you notice something suspicious
* Do take identity theft seriously
* Do use up-to-date anti-virus and a firewall
* Do NOT click on links in emails, ever
* Do NOT use the same password at multiple sites

Thank You

A great deal of people have used their gmail and yahoo accounts to sign into their Windows Live/.NET accounts, thus they too are compromised. Regardless, it is a good idea to just go change them all.

I just finished with all mail accounts, bank, credit cards, medical and all the forums. I figured why stop at just mail? It's GOOD to change your PW often.
