In my last column I introduced Password Minder, the tool I use to manage all of my passwords. It generates a long, random password for each site I visit, and makes it possible for me to use the most complex passwords possible, without ever having to see the actual password material or type it in manually. If you didn't have a chance to read that column, you should go do that now, otherwise this column won't make much sense!

This time, I'll take you on a tour of the guts of how Password Mi...

Do you have a website where users need to login, and when they do you compare the password they enter with a column in a usertable? Some people do logins like this. It's easy to program and it works just fine. But what if someone got hold of the usertable and all the passwords of everyone? You may want to hide or encrypt the passwords in the usertable. Many programming languages have functions to do this. I make ASP-webpages, and I haven't found any quick functions to do this. There are plenty o...

Assigning the text value for a Password Textbox

Setting the text property for a textbox with textmode=single and multiline is pretty straight forward by giving TextBox1.Text = "The text we want to set";
However, if we set the Textmode property to Password, then we cannot simply set the text using the TextBox.text.
In practical scenarios, we may not want to set the password for obvious reasons that password is one which we retrieve from the user and it shoult not be set. Also, even if we set some password, the user cannot read it as it i...
