Wow, that was more responses then I ever thought I was going to get. Thank you to every one that responded, I will most likely use some of your e-mails in my presentation to my staff. Just a note on one of the e-mails someone replied with. I don't have a problem with a customer choosing a secure password, it's my customer support staff that is not enforcing the password policy. And they ask "why do they (the customer) need to pick those type of passwords" it's always why, why, why. So I was hoping if I could get some facts, which you all definitely supplied, to show my staff and get them to realize the importance of a good password. Security isn't at the for fronts of every bodies minds unfortunately. Thanks again! Thank You, Chris D. Network Security Mendo Link, LLC "An Ounce Of Prevention Is Worth A Pound Of Cure."
