It is well known that almost everyone uses one password for every site, so if you do that you are very vulnerable. If your password is in a dictionary, is your name or bithday, or is anything other than random(or almost-random) letters and numbers, it'll be cracked in just a few minutes.
You should only make a working password recovery option if:
-you are extremely forgetful
-there are 2 secret questions
-it only emails the password to the email on file; it won't allow you to choose a new email.
Otherwise(especially on a site that breaks the third rule) it's painfully easy for anyone to recover the password.
Take a look at this site(don't enter your password): [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) *
If you thought that was myspace, you are wrong. That is an actual phishing site, and it's attempting to steal your password. Don't fall for home.myspace.com.index.cfm.fuseaction.user.mytoken.oce9v801.xt3cgyq.com/login.php
Go RIGHT TO LEFT from the first SLASH(/), and you'll see this site isn't at myspace.com at, but at xt3cgyq.com. That's an actual phishing site, so don't enter any info into it. Check out my sample advicenators phishing site: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
If he currently has physical access to your computer, you need to "log off" of every site once you're done with them, and you should NOT choose "remember me".
If he has *ever* had physical access to your computer, he may have installed a keylogger. This is pretty unlikely(it's a rather hostile thing to do to your girlfriend), so I won't go into detecting them.
If you're smart and read my advice for keeping your password safe, you'll be able to figure out how to steal someone else's.
(* DangerNerd probably doesn't appreciate being connected with a known phishing site, so I'm going to take that link down after you've finished reading this answer. I might put in an example, non-working URL for future visitors.) [ theymos's advice column | Ask theymos A Question ]
