Should I be worried even if a hacker doesn;'t know what sites they're for that they can grab my social security number right from under me?

Could be trouble--hackers are so smart these days. On tv they say until u are positive u can trust a site just put in 0000 for ur last 4 digits of ur credit card so I would be changing my passwords and use different passwords for different accounts --write them down and put them somewhere really safe in case u forget them.

I think it's always better to use words (doesn't actually have to be a word) with at least eight letters that you will remember. It also a good idea to change your passwords (especially to important areas such as your email, etc) every month. Lastly, make sure you have a firewall, spy ware and an anti-virus program on your computer and use them.
Take care.

I would use something else, ssn's are to easy to hack. If you really care about what you do when you get on those sites, If not no matter.
