Obviously in this kind of situation we (Zappos customers like myself) need to change any re-used passwords since the stolen unsalted hashes :( can be cracked. However, I have no idea which of several passwords I used at Zappos! I would normally just try logging in with each of them, but since you've reset all passwords, it looks like I won't be able to. Is there any chance of helping with this? I need to make sure it wasn't a password I use on any important sites (or derived from such a password).
I'm looking for the data dump right now, in case it was posted publicly--that's probably the only way I'll be able to answer my question since I doubt Zappos will cooperate :(
As someone who was just bit by the Stratfor data loss, this is the second month in a row. Fortunately my Stratfor password was worthless, but I had my credit card stolen and used to pay for video games. And now my email and street address are public information.
