Don't feel alone, Ed....way over my head as well! I agree, that we've
known that the "strong password is dead" but now with this article it
can't be disputed by anyone....including MickySoft who claims it's "8"
is so secure when it isn't. Hopefully, there will soon be a viable
general solution for all of us! 'Course, there's the old adage that
"what one man can make another can take apart," or to that affect. ;-)

Islam is a VERY backward religion, that MUST keep it's masses not only
in subjugation, but ignorant and maintain a feudal state that is always
at war, looking to take over the spoils of all other societies. It is by
nature destructive and not constructive. The Q'oran is based on distortions
of the Bible, lies, paganism, racism, hate, contradictions, and ignorance,
with a good dose of stupidity thrown in for good measure. -Fred A. Miller
