Users must always be careful in choosing
passwords which are not easy to guess or
to crack using password cracking programs.
The following gives a simulation of a password
cracking program [Link].
A one letter password gives 26 combinations
(assuming that only lower case letters are
used), a two-letter password gives 26*26
combinations, a three-letter password gives
26*26*26 combinations, and so on.
