She knows where she stands with him and will more than likely want to stay friends as there is no reason (besides you and your feelings) not too. Your part in how you handle this will determine the strength of the relationship. You said she called him a kind of jerk, well chances are he is, and harmless to your relationship. Ask her questions and snub out those feelings of miss trust. I have lost many great friends who were male because i was forbidden any contact. You need to keep this simple.

I think you are right to be suspicious of the email password thing! People do not usually change those things all of the sudden. If she normally shares passwords with you then see if she will share the new one with you, if not then there may be something going on. Definitely talk to her and see what, if anything is going on. I hope it is nothing, good luck.
