Most commonly used passwords, a list of the most popular passwords people use to login

Hackers who broke into Gawker released a list of the most used passwords.
You never guess what's the most popular one: 123456 of course.

The reason why people chose an easy password is because most people forget their password if it's too difficult. We can only store a few passwords in our brain so a password has to be easy to remember. All too often people do not remember their password of their e-mail account, if the password it's too difficult, so they have to recover or retrieve their password by a complicated procedure. So people use easy to remember passwords and prefer to use the same password for all of their accounts.

You better make your password as strong as it can, before hackers login to your accounts or e-mail with one of these most used passwords. You can make strong passwords and manage them with Roboform.
