Better Tighten up your Wordpress

I learned the hard way today that Worpdress is not all that secure, by default. Course one of my blogs got hacked. Also the fact that I was lazy and should have set up better passwords. Guess it was a nasty little wake up call. Spent some time and changed all my blogs, should be a little tougher now.

So I post to maybe wake up others, or find out I was the only lazy one..
After looking at the default passwords WP outputs, they really are not very secure.

Too bad you can't change the username. Has any one done that?
