Saw on the news recently were this reporter went to some IT place, and they told him they had a program to find out passwords.  Reporter made a Password about 10 characters long with just Random letters, caps, numbers, and symbols.   They had it in less than 2 minutes.  So how safe is all our stuff on the Internet?

That's what I was afraid of.  About a year ago, my credit card company contacted me.   Someone was tiring to use my card (still in my billfold in Evadale) in Germany.  Disconcerting to say the least.
