You've got all those tax records sitting on your computer, taking up gosh knows how much space. The simple thing to do is to archive them into a .ZIP file or something, right? Right. Then you can even store them offline if you want, on a floppy, ZIP disk or whatever.
   But there's that nosy little nephew who comes to visit now and then. You really don't want him snooping through your tax records (and he will if he can). So the simple idea is to password protect the .ZIP archive.
   Perfect logically, since the brat is showing up in a few hours, you decide the password should be IraIsASnoopyKid. After all, the reason for protecting this zip file is to keep the snoopy kid, Ira, out of it. So you do it. The nephew arrives, spends some time playing in the computer room and you think you detect from a look in his eyes that he's a bit frustrated by something – perhaps your password-protected .ZIP file. Cheers for you!
   Flash to 18 months later when that dreaded letter arrives from your friends at the IRS announcing an audit of your tax return. No problemo, you think, everything is in that .ZIP file. And the password is: MyTaxesFor1999, right.
   Wrong-O.
   Maybe it is "OurTaxes . . . " Wrong again. Oh, yeah, it was something to do with that snoop nephew. Try "IraIsASnoop." No. "IAmHidingThisFromSnoopyIra?" Not right.
