Don't do this!

Don't Do This! - It's a classic example of why resetting a system to the default password should not be easy. This is just too easy for a system with limited access control, and such potential for chaos:

Hold "Control" and "Shift" and while holding, enter "DIPY". This will reset the sign and reset the password to "DOTS"

in other password-insecurity related news, the phpBB website was hacked and the hacker published the passwords. This analysis shows that the passwords used on the site were worse than the passwords used on MySpace.
