I've used LastPass via Firefox for a couple-few years. It's been great so far [knock on wood].

 

But my Hotmail account, that I don't use LastPass on, was hacked and used to send some spam a few months ago. Got messages from some friends and saw it all in the Sent folder. But I heard that happened to several people I know who use Hotmail.... Whoever/Whatever it was didn't change the password, thankfully. I did... to something much harder and with numbers.

I have a rotating cast of made up words that I use. "Torgsdeep", for example, is one of the retired ones.

 

Perfect system because I'll never forget them, but nobody could ever guess them.

Nope. I tend to use favorite quotes in a similar manner to your song lyric example.

Many years ago my office computer was upgraded

and my old one was transfered to another area of the plant.

 

When they started it, there was a password screen

and one of the guys said, "It has to be Bills related."

So they tried Bills and that worked.

 

Now the passwords change every 90 days.

When I saw the password our IT department set up for our office wifi I thought "you're !@#$ing kidding me?"

 

 

 

That is my password.

There is something deeply significant indicated in human psychology by the presence of "monkey" on the list. :unsure:

Truly, especially with the glaring omission of penguin.
