this is the results for my basic password that i use on my system log on, on sites i do transactions with it is far far stronger or as the site states the passwords are very well padded ...

I didn't enter my actual system password but a mathematical equivalent. What really irks me when sites restrict the number of characters to something like 'between 6 and 12" - utter arse.  _________________Jim

impressive, the equivalent of my system logon nets 900 centuries in a massive cracking scenario, but swapping two of the characters for a capital and a symbol ups it to 13.4 billion. i think i might start being a little more creative when making passwords

Mixed and numerals are nice but they're no substitute for passphrase length:  _________________Jim

Online Attack Scenario:
(Assuming one thousand guesses per second) 1.47 trillion trillion centuries
Offline Fast Attack Scenario:
(Assuming one hundred billion guesses per second) 14.67 thousand trillion centuries
Massive Cracking Array Scenario:
