Mine is ********************.

Mine is 9 letters long.

Best bet to make a password is to open the dictionary and just find a word.

That is what I did.

Buffal05$abr3s is a good password....just as an example of something not too difficult to remember. If you're better with patterns, something like q12wQ!@W will work, but not nearly as well.

Well most sites also require some sort of punctuation now, like Facebook and Myspace do.

But using every word in a dictionary, that would take them fools hours, even days since it isn't one of the first words, more like last.

My password is so obvious but no one will ever figure it out.

Pussy? Seriously?

Ahh, the bliss of ignorance...go ahead and use xylophone if you want. It still isn't going to take very long. My stance is and always has been, if it's worth them getting, they're going to get it. Chances are 1) they don't give a shit what you have, or 2) they're going to backdoor into your system and take what they want. If they want your bank info or other login info, they're probably going to first try social engineering (if they're a hacker worth their salt...for example, now I know that I need to use a dictionary attack against you), and if that doesn't work, they're going to try sniffing your network to find what they want.

Then you've got the ever-present trojans. Getting you to download one of those would work, too.
