Use a password "safe" that runs on your PC and Syncs to your phone (assuming you have a smartphone). One that securely encrypts your data without your master password. Generate 8-12 character (A-Z,a-z,0-9,# [at] !$) random passwords that are different for EACH account. Yes, every one. Store them in your phone/etc - print out hardcopies and keep them locked in your home/office and a copy in your safe/safe deposit for Armageddon. Since I assume most of you don't have a "data bunker" ;-) Yes, a pain. The password safe program makes it easiER, but even if some douche gets ONE password - he gets NO WHERE else. Jim
