Well surely you are in an advantageous position to do something about this? There are adverts on your website which have these minimum requirements on them [1] - why not match against this criteria and pop up a little warning about the supp

Sorry, I didn't think my last comment needed clarifying any further - I actively use the bcrypt class for password hashing - I said Blowfish originally as I was comparing hashing algorithms.

Mostly because it's very quick to compute millions of hashes, meaning that it lessens the time required to crack a bunch of passwords - of course, this might seem like the last of your problems if your system has been attacked, but most of

To be honest, there isn't any, when I implemented it I was the tender age of 16 and thought there was some validity in the method, but in itself, once you get to these kind of 30-ish letter long passwords, they become damn near impossible t

I wonder how you fall in to these categories, for instance, Ruby and PHP were developed around the same time (though Rails obviously came later) yet Ruby is such a "cooler language" so it can't be due simply to age. I think a lot of it is S
