That doesn't mean number 11 on the list is completely safe - choose wisely!

And if you think you have a really good password, you can post it here and we'll review it :icon_wink:

My password is always the day of the week my password was created. I tell people that, too, because it's not like they'll know what day of the week I created it. That makes it secure. Extremely secure.

And assuming you don't vary case, there's like 10 to the.... er 2 to the... oh wait there's only seven things to guess. They'll never catch on. :) (it's more fun if youweren't kidding)

I have an entirely different type of password.
It is really hard to guess.
O.K. I give you guys a hint and you all guess it

Reasons you fail:

*Short
*Dictionary word
*Only alphabetic characters of a single case.

You guys are right. I should change it to the month it was created instead.

> I should change it to the month it was created instead.
Is it "January"?

Secure? i can just try to input the 7 days of a weeks until it's correct.

My password contains the name of an artifact from one of my favorite TV shows plus some numbers. And I use the same password everwhere, including DaniWeb. I've been told that an ideal password that would be very difficult to crack would contain at least 8 characters, at least one UPPER CASE character, one lower-case character, two numbers, and two non-alphabetic or non-numeric characters (such as ~,.-+ etc)

[sneekula]

I have to create a new password every month, so it is the name of my first girl friend plus the number of the month.

[vaultdweller123]

i changed my password weekly, using my favorite naruto character + PHP function rand();

[Will Gresham]

I use the same password for everything (nearly everything anyway) it contains part of the WPA2 key for my router, part of the phone number at my previous address and part of my name :P

It is not a dictionary word, is 16 characters long has a mix of alphanumeric characters and symbols, so I would like to think it is fairly secure :)

[firstPerson]

Usually my password, is something like this , xxxxxxYZZZZ, where
x is a letter, Y is a punctuation, and Z is a number.

[VernonDozier]

My passwords are so good/random/meaningless ("ert34W89P") that even I can't remember them. That's why I keep them all in a binder on my desk labeled "Passwords". Apparently this is extremely common.

The folks at the NSA will pick your super secret password in less than a second. So, pick something simple you can easily type and remember in the hope that it is safe from the boss or your underage sister.
