This is great and so funny but very true. The problem is when you get done you forget the password and have to start all over again...Rich
Have been there many times.
True!
The worst part is that where I used to work, (retired now), you had to change it every 45 days, it could not contain a "dictionary" word, and they said you could not write it down or store any password on a computer! Everything had to be memorized.
Now multiply that by a dozen, (for other systems needing passwords.)
Anyone confused yet?
