Not sure about a dictionary attack. If you have four words separated by underscores and a dictionary of eighty thousand words, you'd need to match every first word with 80,000 second words, and that combination has to be matched with 80,000 third words.
80,000⁴ is 4,096×10¹⁹, and at one thousand words per second, it would take 1.299 billion years to crack.
And the words in my password are most definitely not in a small dictionary.
Funny to see one of my old passwords up there :|
i feel stupid now.
You should feel stupid
Is it bad I used monkey as a password for a while
later changed of course
My password is a 15 symbols long mish-mash of upper and lower case letters, number and symbols and I remember it without any fancy programs :colbert:

Kinda sucks for the "hacker" if he/she/it doesn't have a european keyboard.

I think from now on, I'll start using the same passwords I have now. Except backwards.
My password is usually a word i make up in my head but sounds like a word you would think is real.

To be fair, an American came up with it.
Why is "Passw0rd" there but not "Password"?
[QUOTE=Aredbomb;33389845]Why is "Passw0rd" there but not "Password"?[/QUOTE]
Because dumb people have been informed that numbers could do well in their passwords.

Number 1, right next to "Here is the complete list"
If you are still using password as a password after the late 90's i'm surprised you have a computer to enter it into let alone a bank account.
yeh because hackers steal your physical computer right
design a program that auto executes and sends it walking right out the door
my old pass was pbItIlAb
popping bottles in the ice like a blizzard
I just let cat /dev/urandom > password run for a few seconds and use that.
I use random assortments of letters and numbers,
E.G. Jab3i6lc
Oh yeah, i also sometimes use my school passwords, Like my old one, Techy@87, or Litho@95. Stuff like that.

That's my ipod unlock code.
My passwords are generated via LastPass, but my phone lock code is a person's name converted to numbers with a 4 digit pin at the end.

If you use the most common words, yes. But using a more obscure word or a foreign word would make it much more secure immediately.
[QUOTE=elitehakor v2;33369348]My passwords look like this

FYI if you just used regular letters it wouldn't be any easier to crack. might as well have made it

Bet you didn't think of this; when signing in, type your username and then drag the icon of whatever website you're at into the password box; all the random code crap goes in, IMPOSSIBLE TO CRACK!!

And for the thousandth time here's the xkcd on passwords
When I worked in IT support I was connected remotely to a users PC and he typed his password then clicked the "show characters" tick box, I almost burst out laughing how bad it was.
It was just Password1
I'm surprised "penis" isn't on the list.
