It seems just about every website you visit nowadays wants a username and password from you.
Of course this means delving into your memory bank to find out what you were thinking when you signed up for those discount shopping offers or that email account you last used in the days before Twitter.
To simplify things people tend to use the same password for numerous accounts (guilty) but this of course makes you vulnerable to hackers.
And while you may think you’re the only person who would use your super, secret, magic, word it turns out that isn’t case.
