Internet has made things interesting, but weird too. Now you can access your Bank account, generate statements and even transfer money at the click of mouse, and the weird part is that anyone can steal your money by just getting to know “few letters or numbers”. Internet today is just not a medium of passing time but the World economy depends on this big network. I guess even you would not like anyone to take control of your accounts, Email and any other Internet-based accounts at any point of time as Internet today is just not fun for you too.

interesting post. for me, i always use combinations of letters and numbers with special keys like @ or %. it would be hard to guess!

Exactly! Using a strong password and infact “different” passwords is necessary in today’s time! I have seen people very easy passwords which are quite easy to break!
