Just do like so many do -- write it on a sticky-note and hang it on your
monitor.

No doubt real words would be easy to crack but the OP said:

four words consisting of letters, numbers and symbols

So, I'm assuming a "word" could be:

z(*1-U+Px#2~,7

There are only four possible triplets to be considered:

word1,word2,word3
word1,word2,word4
word1,word4,word3
word4,word2,word3

Each triplet has only 6 posible combinations:

word1,word2,word3
word1,word3,word2
word2,word1,word3
word2,word3,word1
word3,word2,word1
word3,word1,word2

Just list them and try out each one.

Hi

I have four words consisting of letters, numbers and symbols
which I use as passwords.

I will be very greatful for any assistance as I saw on one of
the forums that it can be done with excel but I have not been
able to find it.

I wonder if anyone has any comments on the security of passwords formed
from two or more real words? I know single dictionary words are fairly
easily found via a computer dictionary attack.
