I've always managed to sidestep these critters - now it's a 'required' item.
Whats the big idea, I know my passwords, no hint required.

The installer looks nice so far, though.

Can you expound a bit and enlighten us as to what you're
referring?

If you're referring to installing Windows 7, I didn't put a
password in and just kept truckin'!

Tony:
The password hint is a word or phrase that will remind you what the
password is. If I have to list a hint I usually use guess, dummy or idiot.

Yeah - that is an idea. . .I don't usually do that but considering?

Yes, it's an o.k. enough idea. Thanks, Bobby!

I always put something in. Could be anything, but I have a "cute" name for
each of my various password phrases. It won't give the PW away to the
curious, but tells me which one it is.
