- A (dutch ??) hacker called "D0gberry" has put online a list/database with some 1.4 billion hacked passwords. When a computer user goes to the website "Have I been pwned" then that person can check whether or not his/her password has been hacked.

A dutch newspaper brought this news. I still find it a bit suspicious/"dodgy". Don't know what make of it. Do the readers of this forum have an opinion on this topic ? Was it perhaps reported on other websites before ?

 The pwned site has been around a while now.

e.g.

To be honest I don't think there are many site/websites etc that haven't been hacked over the last few years.

Thanks for the alert and the reminder.  Not that any of us ever need reminded.  :) 

The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-)

Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.
