PC Tools Password Utilities

How important is a good password? These days, with ready access to password crackers, simply using the name of your pet, spouse or child is not much better than using the word "password".

PC Tools provide both a web based password generator, and a downloadable tool which provides a password generator, password strength checker and Internet Explorer password revealer for those times that you cannot remember the password that IE has saved.
