EHarmony Passwords Stolen By LinkedIn Hackers

The same hackers responsible for the theft of over 6.4 million LinkedIn
passwords also acquired passwords from the popular dating site eHarmony.

“After investigating reports of compromised passwords, we have found that a
small fraction of our user base has been affected,” eHarmony’s Becky Teroka
wrote on the company blog yesterday evening. According to the Los Angeles
Times, 1.5 million passwords were stolen. That’s significantly less than the
6.4 million LinkedIn passwords, but still a considerable amount of eHarmony’s
20 million users.

The Russian hacker responsible uploaded the encrypted passwords to a
Russian-language website forum. Many of them have been cracked, and while
the usernames are not posted, security experts believe the hackers are in
possession of that information as well.

Hmm, eHarmony and LinkedIn...there is a dirty joke in there somewhere

Regardless of their other interests, most people unfortunately use only 1 or 2 passwords for 99% of the krap they do; and they leave their internet connection up ALL the time right at the host machine in the house and don't secure their wireless access if they have it.

Crack one, change all; change none, take a fall.
