The importance of picking a good, secure password can’t be emphasized enough. Your password is the way the computer verifies that someone logging in is really you, so pick something that cannot be guessed by others. The top reasons people gain unauthorized acesses to a password protected system is: They guessed someone’s password. (often because they found it on a piece of paper next to the victim’s computer or because they saw the person type the password in, but also because they use software programs that are VERY good at guessing common passwords.)

Secure Passwords Should Not Include:-

* Your name
* Your spouse’s name
* Your parent’s name
* Your pet’s name
* Your child’s name
* Names of close friends or coworkers
* Names of your favorite fantasy characters
* Your boss’s name
* Anybody’s name
* The name of the operating system you’re using
* The hostname of your computer
* Your phone number
* Your license plate number
* Any part of your social security number
* Anybody’s birth date
* Other information that is easily obtained about you
* Words such as wizard, guru, gandalf, and so on.
* Any username on the computer in any form (as is, capitalized, etc.)
* A word in the English dictionary
* A word in a foreign dictionary
* A place
* A proper noun
* Passwords of all the same letter
* Simple patterns on the keyboard, like qwerty
* Any of the above spelled backwards
* Any of the above followed or prepended by a single digit.

So, before you choose password, you should be aware not to choose the keys among the above list.

You can easily find out the duplicate music and video files of different formats, very easily. If you want to do manually ,than its fine but you have to give more time and there many be some mistakes. But if  you want t automatically with the software than there is one I found, its name is ” Similarity Software “

But if you want to scan and delete duplicate files automatically to reclaim your hard disk space I suggest you to give Similarity a try -

Similarity is a useful program that helps you to find and remove similar, duplicate musical files (MP3, WMA, OGG, WAV, FLAC, APE, WV, MPC) with the same or similar sound content, music tags (ID3,WMF,Vorbis). This is the best program where similarity of a sound part is checked, not just music tags or file content (byte to byte comparision). In addition the program analyzes the artist, title, album information from the music tags contained in the audio files and compare these with the appropriate entries in other files.

You can adjust sensivity of searching criteria to find exact or similar files. In this way it is possible to identify similarly titles with smaller differences. Duplicate files can be deleted or browsed. The list of duplicate files can be sorted, exported to playlist, and acted upon.

You may not realize how many duplicate music files you have on your computer, after numerous downloads from the Internet, or scattered over your home or corporate network. Duplicate files are in most cases redundant and unnecessary, so keeping them is merely a waste of valuable hard disk space. Your hard drives may be full of extra copies of audio files waiting to be removed. Similarity will help you reclaim your valuable disk space and organize your music collection.
