Hi :)
Lol. NO. ;) lol.  That would  give you all my passwords for everything!  

Ok, the simple one is something like 
1. take the website name and reverse it
2. add 1 to each character so that a becomes b, b becomes c etc
3. replace certain letters with special characters where possible, eg L might 
always be ; (the key next to it or m becomes < or something
Some sites don't allow special characters so i tend to have a "simpler" version 
where letters become numbers for places such as ZdNet.

That sort of thing.  So just decide on the rules you are going to use and keep 
that a secret.  Then you can generate your password for each site quite easily.  
The trick is to avoid making your rules tooo complicated!  You have to be able 
to apply it easily without using pen&paper or leaving a trace of how you 
calculated the password.  So it has to be easy to remember but difficult for 
other people to guess at :)

Regards from
Tom :)

Hi :)
Ahh, i have 3 usernames with 1 being my top preference and the other 2 only
if
i'm not allowed to use my favourite one.  Then i generate passwords from a
fairly simple  algorithm applied to the website's name.  Where i need
greater
security i just extend that algorithm.


So, even without writing down a list of passwords i can usually work out
what my
password probably was - which is useful since i am not always at the same
location.  Writing the passwords and usernames in a text-file can be useful
but
then it's tricky trying to give it a good name and hiding it's location so
that
only you can access it easily.

Hi :)
The Nabble forum can be a good place to put attachments.  Nabble is just
a
different way of viewing the email threads.  It's fairly easy to use and
registration is fairly easy too.  I'm getting quite into it now :)
