Uncrackable

I remember as a student reading an article about password security that recommended, in addition to the usual mix of case, digits and symbols, the inclusion of control characters on systems that allowed that. "Wonder if ours does..." Turns out it did, for setting the password, but not when actually logging on. So my account was completely inaccessible.
