Remember last months security breach of Adobe where hackers gained access to between 38 and 150 million names, encrypted credit or debit card numbers, poorly secured passwords, expiration dates, and information relating to customer orders? The cyber-crooks had also managed to get source code for "numerous Adobe products."

Facebook, looking over the leaked records, have found where users have often use the same password for different website accounts.

Facebook has alerted its users to the leak of their data and are strongly suggesting that they change their passwords and use different passwords for different websites. The move allows Facebook to force users off passwords that could otherwise have been guessed by attackers who possess the Adobe lists.

What do the experts suggest? They recommended that users keep a different password for each service and employ memory tricks such as mnemonics, as well as mixed case and alphanumeric combinations.
