That is the reasonable expectation. I will agree that for us, being in the IT field, this would be the case. But I would disagree this is the case for the general public. If a password is 'weak', it does not mean that if someone uses that password to hack an account secured by it is any less of a crime, or that the person who's account was hacked deserved it in any way. I have 'bump proof' locks installed on all my doors because they are more secure than regular locks. Does this mean if someone uses the 'bump' technique for breaking into my neighbor's house it is any less fo a crime than if they break into mine? -- Scott Stroz --------------- You can make things happen, you can watch things happen or you can wonder what the f*&k happened. - Cpt.
