Email Alert and hackers

[justinofoz]

Those of you who have Yahoo, Hotmail and Lycos email accounts should be aware that there is a hack which was on the internet that allows the user to get your complete login details for that account. With this they will have copies of every bit of information you recieve and send through that account, including passwords and login information for all your forums, Paypal, Google, image galleries and websites.
I reported the site where the hack was and it has been removed. But there is no telling just how long it has been up and how many hackers have copies of it. Quite a few I imagine.
So if you do have any of these accounts, then you might wish to close them and open new accounts elsewhere. Change all your passwords and login info everyehere that you have an account.
I have edited the page with red stars (*****), but the following is a copy of the page as it appeared on the site.
