Online Security Tools
On the VPN thread, I posted a link to Gibson Research Group

On their site they have a number of tools that you can use to check various aspects of your security measures.
An interesting one is to check your password `crackability` - you can put a password into the text bar and it will check the strength of it and whether it can be cracked or not by various methods.
Interestingly, a seemingly simple and easy to remember password such a c@t................. - nonsense word comprising two letters, one character and seventeen dots making a password of twenty letters/characters in length will take 84.50 billion trillion centuries to crack under normal circumstances and 8.45 hundred billion centuries if using the most powerful of computers in an array.
