Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] Password creation


Password Creator:

What I am after with a password creator is to create a password with
letters, and numbers that contains words that people can remember alongside
a number ie:

Moon332

Is an okay password or

Biscuit41

Is an okay password.  Security isn't a huge issue, so...

What I have come up with is to find a list of common english words (ie words
that most people would know) of 5 or more letters, and to combine 2 words
from the list with a number in this format:

<num><word><word>
OR
<word><num><word>
OR
<word><word><num>

Easy enough!  Have created my own now!  This way it's harder to crack, BUT
easier to remember.
