If you are seriously concerned about passwords, look into Scorpion Software's RWW guard:

Hi guys,
I've finally sussed out how to get RWW and OWA working (yeah, I know it's not that difficult but it's my first time :)
Can anyone give me a good example of how complex a secure password should be ? For example, let's say I used something like Paris9767(>! (no, I'm not really using that one !) - is this considered good enough ? Also, should usernames be made more complex to further allay a hacker trying to crack my RWW logon page ? Is davidsmith, for example, good enough if the password is complex or should I consider altering logon names such as dav1dsm1th?
Finally, howcome if I change the administrator name (server management, users, right click administrator, rename), when I next logon it refuses the name I just changed it to but accepts 'administrator' ? I'm obviously doing something wrong but can't see it. Any help/advice appreciated.
Regards Colin.
