Re: Placing *'s in a password field.

[Jim Langston <jlangston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Reminds me of the ancidote,

A little girl, 7 years old or so, comes running into the front room,
"I know what daddy's password is!" she giggled.

"What is it?" her mother asked intrigued.

The girl replies: "Astrisk, asterisk, asterisk, asterisk asterisk!"

Regards,

Jim Langston
