Once there, there is usually a "Forgot Password" button. If you select this, you will get a reset password link to your Inbox and you're on your way again. I use Passdiary as my holder of all passwords - very useful to minimise this problem recurring. I have literally hundreds of different accounts and no two are the same. There's polenty of other password manager apps available too.
