As long as everyone is sharing stories, it was the late '90s in the bay area when I was in high school and poked around in our computer lab systems. Other than running Quake and Starcraft, which we were not supposed to do, it occured to me to install a keylogger on an NT4 machine that was shared by the students and our admin. After finding a stealthy keylogger, installing it and verifying it worked for capturing my own password, I went home excited and nervous. When I got into the lab the next day, I looked around for some privacy and quickly checked the logs. Imagine my satisfaction when her password fell into my lap. I remember it to this day, it was "dj3j". Those were the days, of short passwords at least. I proceeded to immediately remove the log file and keylogger and never used her password, am a white hat through and through. Hopefully she changed it by now...
