Passwords for chocolate
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/3639679.stm
I worry about the world 
If there was only a way we could siphon off Graham's and my paranoia and spread it evenly through the population.

Re: Passwords for chocolate
Why do I get the impression that the majority of people who answered the 'secret for password' question were women...??

They have no way of knowing that the passwords given were the real passwords (how could they check?). If they were offering chocolate, I would imagine even the slowest witted people would manage to give a random word in order to get a freebie.

Indeed, and I watched 'enemy of the state' last night!
Or maybe that explains why I'm slow today.

Re: Passwords for chocolate
I can give you ALL my passwords ... but you would need to know what systems etc they were for surely ...
Giving out passwords is not a problem, unless you know where to use them ....

I think this about sums up the validity of this rubbish

I'd reveal my "password" to anybody if they were offering me free chocolate! My password is "givemefreechocolatenowplease"!

Re: Passwords for chocolate
i agree they could have given false passwords...
i have only ever told one person my password for anything, and that's the other half.....and if he uses the password he will get a sever beating :pp
