;D Seeing as this is your first post, I welcome you to TTF.

Your girlfriend could be guessing your password, using a keylogger to see what keystrokes you type; then using that; or something of the sort. I don't think she would be able to brute force your password because AOL Dialup servers give a timeout error if there are too many failures in a short timespawn.

Remember to have complicated passwords. The more private the account, the more cryptic your passwords. For example, an old yahoo password of mine was:

jufh80h4unfvnxjk45ha

Brute force cracking that would take a heck of a long time. Not worth it. If it was cracked in one day, or even a week by one computer, then she's either using a keylogger, or has some sort admin account where she can control passwords of other users.

Also, I have not kept up with AOL hacking recently, but there could be a possibility that AOL passwords are encrypted in the user's computer and she might have an app that decrypts it. It's a possibility.

I wish I had an intelligent ,evil and a bit geeky gf like that rather than the extra-emotional gf of mine .

I'd rather take the extra-emotional one.

I'd rather shoot myself

Is there any possibility of getting the best of both worlds? (geeky and emotional) Hell at this point I'll for either as long as she can put up with a passion for all things Star Trek. (among my other obsessions) :cheesy:

Ok I admit I'm way off topic here.

bwhahahahahha :lol:

In all honesty, I wouldn't want a geeky, techie girl. I deal enough with computers during the day, that I don't want it to be the topic of conversation when I'm not near them. I guess I don't have the passion for computers as much as some of you guys.

My girlfriend is a bit emotional at times, which is normal, and healthy. She likes to play with photoshop, and has an interest in the things I do on the computer. She finds things like ssh+screen+ncurses, and VNC amazing. Having a girlfriend who is intrigued by technology, but not 100% into is not. I don't think I would like having competition. Plus, can you imagine the things called out in bed?:cheesy:
