passwords


 I agree with what everyone has been saying in terms of "nonsense" passwords
 that contain letters and symbols.

 What I also suggest is a combination of upper and lower case.  You  end up
 with something like u45TLei9, for example.

 I read a article some years agoand found tha tmost people choose their
 pet's name as their password of choice, followed by kid's names as second.
 I was chagrined because at that time my passwords were "Frodo", "Cassie",
 and "GusGus".

 Right now the only problem I run into is that between my husband and I, we
 have several passwords and it can be tricky to remember what belongs to
 what! -- especially when you're trying to access your banking account in a
 hurry.
