Title: How To Avoid Hackers?
Post by: Ambiorix on February 05, 2008, 07:40:45 PM: How To Avoid Hackers?

Is it a good idea to have a

3\78}_/(X4*L&.8*T/:;k]MU*cNggRU{lZ(jJp'YW"#gb2/36}4wS\#1vXyQzA

style of pasword to protect my account?

instead of 12341234?

I save all my passwords with an application "keychain" that is storing it in an encrypted way.

Post by: Ambiorix on February 05, 2008, 09:08:10 PM: that application makes passwords as well.

e.g.;

wort59#bunny ; BBMo55KtHgGB ; 499086349201 ; Pqwq-9inC/]: ; voishenvarlo ;

Or why not ;

http://www.roboform.com

It generates some great passwords and does auto-logins.

My password here is nearly impossible to break using brute force attacks and all are stored using Blowfish encryption.
