Forgot your Windows Vista password? Congrats! That is a good sign that you are conscientious about developing "hard to hack" passwords.
Security for our data, whether it lives on our desk drives or online, has become more sophisticated. Anti-virus programs are doing a better job than ever attacking malware and viruses. Firewalls, even for home offices, are more common than ever. While all of this is progress, it could just as well lull us into a false sense of security.
Perhaps the best way to ward off evil viruses and malware, in addition to having an anti-virus program, is to have a strong password for both your Windows accounts as well as for your online accounts (especially financial). A strong password is long, at least eight characters, with words and numbers that make no sense to anyone but you. That said, strong passwords are definitely a recipe for forgetting a Windows Vista password.
