When I went to high school, we used to screw with people by entering their username and then entering bogus passwords rapidly. The system would then lock them out for 10 minutes or so. Same idea here. You can play off the "security" features to your advantage.

Besides, what if all the would-be attackers wants to do is destroy some incriminating information. Just enter the a bogus password 10 times!]]>Dec 3rd 2009 3:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/Dec 3rd 2009 3:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/Dec 3rd 2009 3:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/Dec 3rd 2009 3:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/What are you hiding???]]>Dec 3rd 2009 4:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/Dec 3rd 2009 4:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verbatim-announces-worlds-first-ssd-expresscards-with-256-bit/Instant Messages, emails and Mobile phone SMS messages primarily, stored safely since 2007. You can't trust anyone freely these days. Besides, if in the event I get into a serious accident and I *ahem* don't make it, the last thing I would want is people, friends and family members rifling through my messages and conversations with other people. I want my messages, passwords and encryption keys to go with me. It's not illegal, it's not pronographic (typo intended), it's just plain flat protection of my privacy which is a legal right.

Personally I think the risk is as another 'unverified' poster said, some bored joker or kid or sibling can try to guess the password and erase your stuff by accident.
