I just heard on Fox TV, then corroborated on web security sources that
MILLIONS of Yahoo passwords have been stolen.
Change your Yahoo password immediately.
If you have used that same old password on other sites (banks etc) go to
those sites and change your passwords.
This is NOT an idle warning...but VERY REAL.

Sorry this is not Fjord related, but I am trying to get the word out before
anyone here gets damaged.

Investigate before you rush into anything.

If you're account was stolen yahoo has alerted you and changed your password.

Yahoo said it reset passwords for users who were impacted. The company 
sent them text messages Wednesday night warning of unusual activity on 
the network.



Not that it's a bad thing to change your password periodically.

I think I will believe the security companies that said that Yahoo admitted
that not everyone had been notified.
Yahoo told THEM that everyone should change their passwords and that Yahoo
had a lot more work to do on the problem.
Sophos
Norton
AVG
McAfee

Sorry but I did check before posting.
I believe these people more than CNN

STAY SAFE

Fred
