Sure enough, I was challenged in my first log-in attempt using Safari web browser on a Mac. <br /> <br />After getting the password wrong a half-dozen times, I copied it into Excel, changed the font to one with serifs, and enlarged the size so my bifocals could see it. My problem was that I had mistakenly been entering lower case L instead of the expected upper case I. The digit 1 could also have caused confusion. <br /> <br />Another potentially confusing pair would be the digit 0 and the upper case letter O. And unless your eyes are sharp, you might also confuse an upper case Q. <br /> <br />A serif font in the password dialog would speak to this issue.<span style="font-size: 18px; line-height: normal"></span></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
