  1. I do not know any of my passwords to any of my online accounts because my passwords are all generated by a program with random letters, numbers, charactares,…Any one who would want to crack my passwords would have a very hard time.

    I have them all saved in text files on my computer.  I refuse to even have firefox remember them because I never know when my favorite browser can become compromised.
