[QUOTE="comfortablynumb15, post: 384475, member: 36325"] I would be very careful about "testing" my passwords at sites like this. That one has been around for some time, but you can never be certain. Also, most of these tests assume well known technology when deciding what it takes to crack a pass. They don't and can't take into consideration the unknowns of very well funded intelligence agencies. Assumptions about what can and can't done, and what is or isn't happening has already bit us in the hind quarters once. As far as password security goes, I use Keepass to generate mine, so I feel fairly safe from all but the most determined attackers. [/QUOTE]
