  A creative answer to a insecure question can be more secure then we realize. The question "Where were you born?" could be answered:

  1. Third floor

  2. Near Mom

  3. xTown

  4. NH0sP1T@l

  5. b0St0nm@ss

  6. t@xiC@bb

  Just takes a little creativity and a good memory, and a handy password safe.

  :-):-)

  Good grief. There I was thinking that I was being insecure by ignoring the variety of questions and choosing the same answer regardless of the question, and it turns out that I'm being a little more secure. Who would ever guess that my favourite pet's name looks suspiciously like my first postcode? +1 for laziness!
