You know how on TV shows the computer nerd is always able to discover the secret passwords on a computer needed to save the world just by inserting a USB stick into the back of the villians computer?

Well, you actually can do just that. 

You can take a USB thumbdrive, add several free programs, and set it so that by simply inserting the thumb drive into a USB port on any computer, you can quickly pull off all the passwords saved on that computer.

To see how to do this, check out the article at http://lifehacker.com/create-a-usb-password-stealer-to-see-how-secure-your-i-1650354166
