When I am online I do try and be as security conscious as possible and I am not the only one who is like this, and that’s what made this bit of news of a little gadget from PayPal.
What PayPal are doing is trialling security key fobs to help protect peoples online PayPal accounts a lot easier and make this service/device a useful addition to PayPal.
I would also have to agree that this would make life a lot easier than remembering long passwords with many numbers and letters.
Instead just enter it from the key fob and hey presto you’re in, as easy as that.

New tech should be less able to crack, well thats the thought any how but then you got smart crackers and coders who are like wizards at what they do so it was only a mater of time before HD-DVD was cracked and it has been by an anonymous programmer known only as Muslix64.

Now the first HD-DVD we heard of has been pirated on all places (BitTorrent), I guess it will be a big file but with broadband connections these days I guess that is ok for all the film downloaders in the world.

Many personal passwords can be easily cracked, you need to create one that is easy to remember and can stand up to keyloggers and brute force attacks with a compound password.
