- CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS
- This is a huge problem for most people as they often don't use unique or strong passwords.
- Use a password manager like Keepass and/or the one built into Firefox. (Make sure to set a Master Password if they do that.)
- Keepass also has the ability to create random passwords, so use this. Be sure to protect your master password and backup your database file or you'll have to reset them. Until you are comfortable using Keepass, I suggest you use a password you can remember for the email address associated with your online accounts in case you need to reset them.
