My old password was hashed. It was "########" without the speech marks. Sorry, that was a bit weak, even for me. Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2 |

Password updated - as an unrememberable string of random characters. Thankfully, 1Password can remember this for me. |

Do you ever use the pronounceable option or avoid ambiguous characters? |

I do use pronounceable, but I still won't be able to remember it. |

My preference is for unambiguous characters which makes it easier to read out. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk. |

Just an example of how weak some hashing is, this journo cracked 45% of 17,000 unsalted md5 hashes in just 3 seconds - once he'd figured out how to use the freely available software, which did take him a few hours: http://arstechnica.com/security/2013/03 ... d-cracker/ Of course, the 55% he didn't crack were the more secure passwords. |
