Mine is not there, but how can assert that there are reasonable chances that it did not get cracked.
I don't want to get paranoïd and I see no point in changing my password to minor services unless there is a really good chance that it got compromized.
The "strong" versus "weak" message that some password checking services provide tells me nothing very usefull because what is weak when you focus a cluster of CPU for a week on may be "strong" for those who use the Gawker leak and don't have (I guess) such ressources.

you can't be sure, it's just a matter of time and desire, I have the time and resources, for instance, but no desire.
It was encryted with DES. It's been compromised.
