used for answers?


Set the password to "Invalid" and then the security question doesn't
matter because when you get the password wrong you'll get a message
saying, "Your password is Invalid." Sorry, the devil made me say that.


I know a few people who put sweary messages in their passwords. Problem
is no-one will be able to see them if the organisation is storing them
properly.

No site or organisation should be able to tell you what your password
is: passwords should be stored encrypted with a salt.
