>>A couple of years ago I opened a Gmail email account. I have used this email only a few times, and registered in one or two of web sites with this email account. Today I received an email from Google pointing to a link to change the password. Strange thing is that the email message I received from Google is in russian whereas I clearly remember that when I opened this email account it was done in English. My question is, does it mean that someone tried to hack into my account and change the password? Why else, all of a sudden Google would prompt me to change the password? How can I find out more?

I have not changes anything, yet, and will be very careful. Thank you.
