My morning paper quoted 'fyou' as a top twenty choice.

It's like when I see people with " " (one tap of the space bar) as their phone password.

YOU COMPLETELY DEFEATED THE PURPOSE!

Ah...when will we learn?

I did, and still do, alot of computer work for businesses and individuals.
They ask me if I need thier passwords.
I tell them "If I can't crack it in a day? I'll call you."
I don't make many calls.

Good IT security.

Have multiple passwords and then tape them underneath your keyboard so you do not forget them.

And when you are forced to change your password then just use a one up serial, i.e. password1, password2, password3.

There are more, but I need to send some cash to a Nigerian prince to help access his Swiss bank account.

Would you tell me your secrets how to do that?

I am wondering what are you trying to say if if you have the password "iloveyou"?

Who cracked them? Must be a real egg head with a big powerful brain, those passwords are great! Makes mind look silly like...5y2A6zZ@4HT£$9n.

Must have letters. Must have numbers. Must have other charachters (- + £ etc.) No words (correctly, most obvious misspelled, backwards...). Can't be same as your username. ... If password you would like to use doesn't meet those guidelines our system doesn't allow you to select it.

Also here its requested that you use unique password in our system (not same as you use in Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, email, web forums, your favourity porn site...). Ofcourse this can't be enforced and as result is propably one of the greatests vulnerabilities.
