Hopefully everyone with a yahoo account has changed their password by now. It is also important to change your password on any other sites where you used the same password.

The best practice is to use a unique password for each site you log into but passwords can be difficult to keep up with.

If you don't use different passwords for each site, at least make sure your email password is not used anywhere else.
