Is it time to change your password?

If your password is on this list, it DEFINITELY is.

Best passwords are 8+ characters, a combination of letters and numbers and nothing identifying yourself (birthday, SS#, name, son's name, etc)

I usually use common objects or names and obfuscate them for a password. Looking aroung the room. I have an HP Laserjet 1300. Easy password hint.

All I did was replace the e's with 3's and the a with a 4, the s with a z, and added an exclamation point. OK, that might be an extreme example, but it's better than chris1234

Really need a browser in 2008 core? Use Lynx!

I decided I really was tired of having to go to another machine to manage downloads for my 2k8 core machine, so I decided to find a way around it.

I found an old Lynx port that seems to work WONDERS on Windows 2008 Core!
