Malware warning: passwordstrength.net

[shovenose]

Well, it's a pity, since it seems like quite a useful site.
But every time I go there, my anti-virus detects something.
And I'm not the only one. Other people with different AV softwares were having this problem too...
so try to avoid passwordstrength.net and DO NOT put your passwords in

The WOT scorecard for the site is highly negative.

They probably harvest all the passwords...

I wouldn't doubt if they checked your browser to see what sites you have cookies with too.

That doesn't sound good... Are you saying that, not only the website knows the HWI password, but can save cookies so that they can get more valuable details...?

[shovenose]

Wait what?
The password site has.nothing to do with HWI, (which is a good thing)...

[Klinc]

Why not just use the lastpass add on to generate a secure password for you?

[Morsec0de]

Just use an alternative site for this. I recommend passwordmeter.com

That's a cool site, morsecode!
