Since the list isn't and shouldn't be posted, here's a pretty nifty tool credits to Nuck from reddit: [url]http://anicheck.herokuapp.com/[/url] 4n6u6x
Put in your email and check.

well, how do you read an md5?
i ed an i assume full list because it has 905000~ s, and i see my email there
not going to bother changeing s because i just dont care, everything of importance uses its own set of s, and everything that i consider throwaway uses a different, but i want to see if i can get my own from it so i know which of the throw away ones is compromised.

I have an but don't know which e-mail (likely dead) or I used. I guess I should go change the on some sites that use the throwaway including this one.
Why do I feel oddly conflicted about throwaway s... almost like a large portion of my life was spent on those sites.

At least you can access your MU . I had to make another (hopefully temporary) one because after changing the it's asking me to my e-mail via a non-existent e-mail. If I try to get the site to reset the e-mail to try and get another one sent it says the doesn't exist -_-

That's weird. I changed my pw just now and it didn't ask for my verification. Have you ed one of the s?

He tried to change his email at the same time as his , and the email he input wasn't actually a correct email address, so he locked himself out of his own

Thank you oh so very much. I see now, I filled in the e-mail thinking I had to type it in as well for the change -_-

Oh wow, I didn't even realise MT got hacked, after some googling I found the list and behold, my and trusty old was there. Now a mass change begins.

I'm so freakin' angry about this and even more angry at MT. I've been using MT as long as I've been using MU, if not longer. I had a pretty simple that I used on MT that I've used on many, many other sites that I frequent for leisure (forums, manga websites etc.). Of course, I don't have the same for important websites like email, banking, credit card etc (I have unique s for each of those). However, there's been plenty of other websites and forums that I've long abandoned for which I've used that same .
Fortunately, I never updated my email for MT. The email address that I had ed for MT (which is showing up as one of those compromised) was hacked a long time ago and I've since stopped using it. I've only now just deleted it for safety's sake. I'm sooooo relieved that I never bothered updating my email info, though. After my old email got hacked, I went to my most frequented sites and updated all my email information. MT must have (thankfully) fallen through the cracks. I probably would have had an aneurysm if my current email had been the one compromised.
Ugh, consider it lesson learned. I'm not even going to use my normal email for any type of frivolous site. I've taken to ing for scanlator forums etc. with one of my throwaway emails every since the email hack.
I don't my Mangatraders , but I think the one I used there wasn't used in any other site.

There are MD5 lookup tables online at this point.... It was designed as a cryptographic hash function, but there are obscure mathematical ways of breaking it now. It's not incredibly fast to do so yet, but so many have been done already and if someone really wanted your , they could reverse-engineer either it or one that hashes to the same thing under unsalted MD5.

There is some thread on reddit discussing the MT issue, and there are screenshots posted there that show access to MU and to MAL (with the assumption that s were gained from the MT crack since some used the same here and on MT). Sorry if this has already been discussed, I spent the time changing all my s before I went looking for info. 🙁
Anyway, if it is indeed the case, what kind of mischief can we expect from that? Wouldn't it be prudent to reset the s for all s and mods?

I think MU caught onto this and already took action. Someone probably cross listed the list with one of the s and figured out the .
