The previous hack on accounts was due to an SMF vulnerability exploited through the security question option, it has been disabled since then to prevent a repeat.

Maybe it's just my tech ignorance, but I find that statement to be less comforting than perhaps I should have.

OP, I liked that graphic you included in your post, as I'd never seen anything of the sort before. I'm pretty sure my password is strong enough, and I don't use it on any other websites so I hope I'm secure as far as that's concerned. Members of bitcointalk should be extra careful about protecting their accounts. There probably aren't many hackers trying to access members' accounts on other forums like this one, but it's a completely different situation here. I think it's especially important for newbies to realize this.

Let's face it, any security measures have limits and it's just a matter of how badly someone wants your account.

Agreed, and I don't lose any sleep at night because I'm worried any of my online accounts are going to get hacked. I do what I can to be secure, and I hope for the best. What else can you do?
