I don't feel secure
Although my password is simplistic and someone somehow has managed to post items not by myself I am leaving this sight I will still view but sadly never post again I will view posts but not comment until I set up again under another profile with all aspects of my id changed to a more secure prospective!

Cadwaladr, surely there is a way to change your password. Over 7 years of contribution and 21 points.
Hopefully the Boss can help you. Regards from Australia.

Hi, Cadwaladr
Of course, change your pass and stay with us.
Sh..t happens sometimes, but we keep on....
Best regards, Josip
It's impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious...
Don't ever underestimate the power of stupid people when they are in large groups.
Please, don't teach me how to be stupid....
No job is as important as to jeopardize the safety of you or those that you work with.

Hi Cadwaladr. A good place to get a password Einstein proof would be the serial number one of your appliances in the house. Learnt this a few years ago.

One site called "Password strength checker" does a real time evaluation HOWEVER, this site might be best read first. https://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&r...HDsT5q_48jJceA

Re: I don't feel secure
If you use something like LastPass then it can generate those massively long passwords four you and also it will autocomplete them so you don't need to remember the password yourself (just don't forget the master password for the account)
