RE: Thousands of Hotmail passwords leaked online
Searching pastebin (pastebin.ca has search) will give you plenty more stolen passwords, not that big of a list though. That's just a few that happened to be posted in public, the giant majority is exchanged in private underground communities.

Password stealing is a business and going on all the time, all those keyloggers, password stealers and phishing sites are not just kiddies being bored (well, a portion is), but criminals using your account to get access to whatever they can get money from.
