EMERGENCY ACCOUNT HACKED
This is an emergency! My Minecraft account was randomly hacked and I can't log in to it! I was looking through free mc alt generators(and I didn't even type any information) and after I tried to log in to some of those accounts, but none worked of course. Then, I just gave up and decided to play some Minecraft and could not log in to my actual account. I'm having a panic!! What should I do? I can still log into optifine just fine, even when I reset to a new password.

It probably stole your lastlogin file from your .minecraft folder to hack your account. You should be able to get it back by contacting Mojang, or maybe you have a recovery key (I'm not sure if Mojang uses them). Good luck.
It`s scam anyway... Nothings free nowadays.
NEVER download something free that's not supposed to be free without running a scan on the download file.
Only reason I've been able to watch numerous movies online for free (those not available on netflix, local cinemas or dvd stores) is because I stream them, not download them. The only safe way to download movies and other things free is torrenting, and that's quite a hassle. Not even worth the bother for me in most cases, not to mention a lot of torrent seeds are not what they say on the tin.
anyway, contact mojang about your account information having been stolen. if you're lucky they can recover it. If you're not you're gonna have to buy a new one.

Also, change your password(s) using a different device.

Dumb idea, servers you right. I remember when I was so tired of trying to get the Frozen movie that I tried tl get a free one online. I ended getting a virus. No idea how I was sos stupid! It's not even like Frozen is a good movie anyway! It also reninds me kf a time when I went on a website that said it wiuld give you a minecon cape for free if you went through a survey to prove that you were human, then you had to give them your email along with your MC username. They had a "chat" section that looked like people were actually talking to each other. Well once I got a closer look I realised the programs to test if you were human wrre bassicly ads where once you gave your email the ad companies probably sent spams to your email. I was curious when I couldn't use their chat section. Then I relized that it was fake and was just running cycle of fake chat messages made by nonexistent humans. Luckily I didn't want to do steal a Mojang cape from Mojang and I realized quickly that the site was a fake.
Best case scenerio, you got something that stole your lastlogin file to get your account. Worst case scenerio, you got a keylogger. Disconnect from the internet and run scans on your PC with a variety of different virus scanners. Maybe even restore your PC to a date before you downloaded that software/visited that site to be safe. Contact Mojang to attempt to recover your account.
That's what you get for trying to steal.

I think that punishment is well deserved. Change you passwords and restart your computer.
