One simple thing you can do is make your password is not easy to 'guess' with a dictionary of words or words with letters replaced with numbers.

There are other ways and means to hack an account but the script-kiddies will just download a dictionary and a pre-written hack script and off they go so you will be closing a door to at least some of the muppets.

Take care out there, it's a dangerous place...

What an unfounded load of bilge. I suppose I could spend my time explaining how and why this is wrong, but in the interests of brevity, there's more than one way to skin a cat, and this is no exception.
Furthermore, that's no way to speak to someone that's been so generous to this community. I'll happily give him benefit of doubt.
In conclusion, access to the Internet is not a license to be condescending and rude.
