Same password for fourteen years? I'd say you've been hacked. And if you have Hotmail (now outlook) you definitely have been hacked. Anyone who had Hotmail a decade ago (me included) got hacked and I eventually started to get threatening messages trying to extort me by way of bitcoin.

I don't think they care about this site so much, but I would recommend changing your critical passwords (bank account, e-mail servers, etc.) at least every year or two.
