Forgot your password flaws
"Never mind creating a password with at least eight characters, two of which are numbers, one of which is a capital letter, and one of which is a symbol like (*&^%$). The easiest way for a hacker to weasel into your account is likely the "Forgot your password?" link." Quoted from the Yahoo article.
I ran across the first article on the Yahoo homepage and the second is linked in the Yahoo article. I found this very interesting as I had to use the reset password link for a fantasy football website, and of course used a simple question. I can assure you my mothers maiden name is now changed. :smileyhappy:
