   Using pure "dictionary words" is a bit risky. If you
   wanna go that way it should be a "nonsense phrase"
   of some kind, preferably with weird capitalization
   like "PooPyForKs" or something.

   A couple of years ago I watched a dictionary attack
   on a mail server in action for a few DAYS. You'd be
   surprised what words/phrases they tried. Somewhere I
   have a record of everything they attempted ... it's
   like 700 pages of small print.

   (thing is, they had an obsolete USER NAME and 'admin'
   was only for local-network logins :-)
