the last few days Password Sentry has been suspending usernames like crazy, way above normal. i haven't paid attention to the password scene in years, back then most of the u/p's were cracked/guessed by brute attacks with wordlists of common usernames and passwords.

i noticed a thread on here not long ago where a guy said that's old technology now to these guys, that they now use password sniffing software. how does password sniffing work?
and is there anything I can do to defend against it?
