I had thought that passwords were not stored on your computer, simply the
hash'ed password.
Yet, when I try to change my password, I get told my new password isn't
acceptable because it it too similar to the old one, or just involves a
change in case.
Any insight appreciated,

Here's a link to a review of a new 'closed source' compiler from intel.
Anyone heard of this? Impressive improvements over ms visual c++ and gnu
2.95. They talk of 30% speed improvement.

I thought that for security reasons, the actual password is never stored on
the computer, just the encrypted form. If so, how can the computer know that
I have tried to "cheat" and when asked to alter my password, I just changed
the case of one letter.
