Step 6You're finished!
Some tips and tricks:
-Stick a random label on it, so nobody's tempted to use it to store something on it. (Hopefully you aren't still using floppies) Something boring usually helps, such as "School Essay" or "Recovery Disk" Definitely don't write "Passwords" on it.
-Hiding it in a safe place is always fine, but if it's found, people would be suspicious why you're hiding it. Your best bet would be to shove it in a big pile of old computer junk. (Yes, we know all computer nerds are pack rats. Just kidding!)
Always follow basic security measures, such as
-Never tell anybody your passwords
-Don't use the same password for everything (That's the reason we made this!)
-Don't make your passwords and PINS something that anybody could guess, such as your birthday, name, or pet.
-Numbers are always helpful, just put some random numbers in and it increases your security greatly!
-Don't let your Internet browser store your passwords for easy login, otherwise a simple ActiveX control can steal all your cookies with your stored passwords along with it! (Tech jargon)
-The best passwords are something random.
1.Start with a stupid phrase (eg. "vacuum likes dogs")
2.Spell it wrong-"vacyoum lykes dawgs"
3.Add some numbers-"vacyoum4lykes1dawgs"
4.Throw in some odd characters-"$vacyoum4lykes1dawgs"
5.Write it on your trusty floppy drive, because I forgot it already!
