Subject: Big Mistake

]if one can test 1,000,000 passwords per second, the password will be obtained in 2 hours 28 minutes AT MOST
If used properly, the one will be blocked in 0.000 01s after having botched first 10 tries. So he would discover, that first 10 passwords are not the corect ones and that he should conctact admin BEFORE any other password could be used. (Even the proper one!)
So such passwords, which are blocked and forced to change after 10 unsuccessful tries in row are probabelly uncrackable by brutal force attack.
(Try to enumerate chance of having the correct password in the first 10 auto-generated tries)
