https://shouldichangemypassword.com/ is a free site where you can enter your email address and it can tell you if your passwords have been compromised, and therefore, need to be changed. It uses several databases that have been released to the public by hackers, of email address where they stolen information. This site was recommended by Techlicious, which is a trusted site. You can read more at their site: http://www.techlicious.com/safety-support/ I checked mine, and it was compromised, in June 2011.
 
I am wondering which site it was, since I know another sweeper that was compromised in June, 2011, I assume it was a sweepstakes site. However, I think that is the same time period where I fell for the fake PayPal email (I am so embarrassed). Also, you might want to use a different password than you usually use, for your Facebook account. They have so many hackers there, chances are you will get hit sooner or later. Least if they get your password, they won't have it for your other accounts, like PayPal.
