   This is quite incredible. Never really knew it could take this long to crack a password. So that’s why they tell you to keep changing your password periodically. Point taken.

   Till then,

   It sure is a nice tool to guage password strength, I like the fact that it gets expressed in amount of time it will take to crack the password, rather than just an indication of weak, stong, extra strong, etc.

   jQuery is the best thing to ever happen to web developers.

   Plugins like this, and plugins that can do all sorts of neat visual tricks really make for a better Internet experience.

   I just hate using it and knowing those with JS turned off won’t have full functionality.

    cool. I will try and download it.

    Very interesting script. I would think that too many of our common passwords could be cracked quite quickly. This really shows just how long it would take. When it calculates the cracking time, I wonder if it takes into consideration that hackers would have many computers under the control to process the cracking script.

    I’m the all time big fan of jquery. It works really great and makes development things more simpler.

    That sounds like a pretty cool script. Hacker will find difficulty in hacking our password to access to our properties. Thanks for sharing the script Ades. heading over to the site to download it.

    Cheers,

    Great tool :) AutoScroll for jQuery AutoScroll for jQuery is a small jQuery plugin that allows for hotspot scrolling of web pages.
    AutoScroll for jQuery is a small jQuery plugin that allows for hotspot scrolling of web pages. AutoScroll for jQuery is a small jQuery plugin that allows for hotspot scrolling of web pages. This plugin will work with pre-1.0 versions of jQuery. You define some rules for what you think is strong, medium and weak. Strong maybe has to include a capital letter, two numbers, and not include the user’s name. Medium requires capitals, but doesn’t have numbers.

    I don’t think anybody will ever be able to hack my passwords since I just use a program to generate them.

24. By Create Your First Website on Feb 15, 2010

    These days with the amount of passwords needed where ever you go on the internet a programme that will generate a secure password for you is a must (something like Roboform).

    Using letmein, password, qwerty or 123456 all the time is asking for trouble.

    How can I test the strength of my password protections on my computers?

    This is an excellent tip for measuring password strength.

    I just tried to check my password and the demo script is not working. I think he must’ve been getting too much traffic to that page.
