Re: Creating a good password. ("Hack" proof accounts)

No one could ever guess any of my uo accounts/passwords... mainly because when I made them I think my fingers spasmed and both username and password I usually use have typos in them now.. teehee >.>

The four most commonly used passwords being: sex, god, love and secret.

Dude, that's just a stupid myth perpetrated by the 1995 movie hackers.

Not sure if someone noticed... but isn't this a line from the movie Hackers?

And if any of you little nooblings haven't seen this movie you can't call yourself a computer nerd in any way, shape, or form.

If your really concerned about your accounts and passwords. Make something hard up and write you password and account on a yellow sticky note, and post it on the side of your monitor... Last time I checked, and even though its on your computer, Hackers can't open that file. =)

Re: Creating a good password. ("Hack" proof accounts)

I dont understand why a normal word like "popcorn" would be a bad password?

Either...
a) they have a keylogger on your PC and you're just plain screwed at this point or...
b) they wont get your info unless you give it to them.

Amirite?

My passwords are a secret!

Re: Creating a good password. ("Hack" proof accounts)

The same should go with account names. Having your char named Scubasean, and your account name called Scubasean just lets people guess at your password. Make it a mix, like your dogs name, with a couple of numbers in it.

No one will be able to get to you.
