Generates random passwords that are hard to guess.  It uses
a crytographic quality random number generator.
It lets you choose the length of the generated password (default 12
characters) and what characters you want to include in the password.
It lets you choose what characters you want to include, upper/lower case,
numbers, punctuation.
The passwords are generated locally in a Java Applet. They
are never transmitted over the Internet, even in encrypted
form.
You can use the program without installing it at
http://mindprod.com/jgloss/password.html You can also run it
as a standalone program, invoking it with
java com.mindprod.password.Password
or
password.jar
Why the key and *** logo? It symbolises locking, restricted
access and the way passwords are often replaced with **** as
you type them.
