Dealing With Computers, Idiots & Passwords.

01.14.05 (5:06 am) [edit]

Okay along the lines of why you should always memorize your password vs. save it to whatever website or program your using. This is called now get this....common sense.
What do I mean. Well it goes something like this. I just set up a client of mines computer & was saying it isnt really a good idea to save your password if your going to have your children around the computer. Why? Well as I explained, you the user step away to do something or they want to play a game on the computer. Well like most kids will do, they'll start clicking away & they could start programs without them really understanding what they're clicking (Instant Messaging programs for instance). Now let's just say your friends get on and start sending you porno pics or send you a link to a something thats less than pleasant to look at on the web. Well that little mind is going to start asking questions, like *Why is that man being pushed from behind by that other man?*
One other reason, where I freelance, we rebuild computers we get from sales & people who just don't want them anymore. Well my partner and I like to see what is on the computer. Oh we find the usual, music, family pics & the usual porn sometimes. But on this one occassion we found that someone used a certain ISP (AOHELL) & had the password saved. Hooked up a network line & found out the account was still active. From a hackers point, this was a goldmine, not to mention identity theft goldmine. Then I wanted to see if the IM program(YAHELL) was the same. Yes. I walked right in just because someone saved thier password. Well, then let's go one further, accessed the email option. Once again, I was in like a virgin on prom night. I could read any & all mail, including a name & password notification related to another website. In case your wondering, the information on the computer will be completely erased when the hard drive is reformatted.
So see I'm not that evil when it comes to all idiots.
So the lesson here my dear reader(s) is that if your going use a computer, be on the web, use some common sense. The world is full idiots & I really hate to see the population increase by one because they don't really don't think about what the digital age is really capable of.
