Forgot your password

I fixed a friend’s computer the other night.  It was simple work as far as computers go except for one bit: She didn’t remember her password.

Fixing that is not simple.

Passwords are tricky; they need to be simple enough to remember and complicated enough to be secure.  Luckily most password systems give you some help – a password hint.

Like your password, your hints should be clever enough to remind you what your password is but complicated enough to prevent others from guessing. Like a personal crossword clue

“not see through this Mess!”

Above all; you should ALWAYS enter a hint when it’s offered. Treat your password like a key to your stuff and keep it safe, and make sure and give yourself a way to find your “key” when it gets lots.

Have a great weekend!
