    Given the wire is buzzing with the news of the recent cyber attack against Adobe I thought
    I'd check my eMail and here's the result ... Yes, I have an account w/ Adobe and yes, I've been
    HACKED! More or less ...

    If you have had dealing with Adobe then I would check your account immediately
    ... Especially so if you have used the same User-name and Password elsewhere ;)

    To check your eMail address: https://lastpass.com/adobe/

    So who is "lastpass.com"? Do you really know that that came from Adobe? Stuff like that is spooky and very often comes from someone other than who you think it is. I'd start with some research it on the Adobe site!

    LastPass.com is registered to:

    Maybe it's a third party Adobe is using, or Joe works at Adobe, or a scam.

    It [LastPass] was recommended in a review ... but that's as good has it gets o_O

    ~w00d
    EDIT: Well, that was easy, found it again

    LastPass, a password security service that has some experience in this area with
    LinkedIn and eHarmony, has put a free tool online that will search the database of
    leaked account info and tell you if you’re at risk....
