Password Strength Checker

Test the strength of passwords on Microsoft's secure pages.

As you begin typing a password out, the bar will fluctuate between weak and strong as you progress.

My advice to anyone where passwords are concerned is to fluctuate the characters between capitals and non-capitals, use a foreign language and incorporate all available character amounts. If you can have up to 20 digits/characters then use 20 and mix letters with numbers and symbols

Funny that Clive as when I set mine I had the caps lock key on accidentally. Took me ages to work out why it wasn't working so now all the caps have to be small and vice versa so I always shove the caps lock key on first

Then I forget to knock the caps key off and enter a post somewhere without looking at the screen and it goes something like this:

'hI ALL, JUST THOUGHT YOU'D BE INTERESTED TO KNOW...' and I get to paragraph six before realising
