good passwords?

how are MS cd keys for passwords? I know the first 20 digits of my winXP cd key by heart already... 😀
are they "random" enough? (i'm fully aware they aren't actually random)

its just easy to get a long list of them, and in this case, since I own a fair amount, i have UNIQUE keys, unlike for "free" versions of MS software 😉
 
Heres how I come up with pass words

Then I add two digits like the last to digits of my social,birth day, telephone, etc... One number goes in front and the other in the back.

well my current "real" password is an excellent one (although its somewhat short), and my current AT password is random letters in random cases. but 25 characters is just soo long 🙂
 
You need special characters (i.e. !,@,#, etc) to make it tough to brute force. At work we can run L0pht crack against the domain SAM and have nearly all the passwords (just under 1000) in a day or so.
