[3.3][RC] Random Password Generator

[Administrator]

Extension Name: Random Password Generator
Author: HiFiKabin

Extension Description: Adds a 20 character Random Password Generator to the Registration Page and Edit Account Settings Page of the UCP as well as via a link in Quick Links. Should the user have JavaScript disabled the Password Generator will not work and is hidden from view.

Note:

• The generated password is created from at least one each of the following:-
  • Upper Case Letters.
  • Lower Case Letters.
  • Numbers 0-9
  • 18 "special characters"
  That gives a total possible different passwords options of:-
  
  ((26 + 26 + 10 + 18)¹⁶) x 26 x 26 x 10 x 18 which equals 3.429E+36
  
  Thats 3,429 followed by 33 0's which is 3.429 Sextillion (UK definition)
  
  To put that number into perspective, the odds of winning the UK Lottery are 1 in 45,057,474
