Man, I seriously underestimated the power of GPU password crackers!
I had an 11-character password which I thought was pretty good--b1Ackb0x3!1, and that was cracked. I'm pretty sure I didn't succumb to any phishing attempts.
Good thing I use 20+ characters for passphrases.

leetspeak is no good.
EDIT:
My password was also weak, but fortunately it wasn't cracked yet. (I would like to tell you what the password is like, but maybe I should not give hints.)
the password above is not exactly l33tsp34k as i know it and if i had to configure a password cracker
config file to attempt leetspeak cracking styles... i would not have guessed to match his style up.
it seems someone actually ran a gpu(s) password cracker for days on end.. if i had to guess.
i wonder what the time line is for that file being first noticed versus the file being in the wild for
anyone to get? Two weeks? 5 days? hmm
