Following your tip by curiosity, I googled one my old passwords, which was leaked in the most recent Lulzsec release (in MD5 form).

And there it was, in cleartext, on the second page of the search results, along with the username that I used on battlefield heroes beta.

It was on a pastebin with another 60k combinations of usernames and passwords.

The password was only 6 characters in size though (along with every other on that pastebin), so I guess that made it a certainty that it would get cracked.

How about the other combos, were they also all 6 characters in size?
