A man working at a high security agency. The man tried to log into his computer and the computer denied the password. He then remembered that the passwords to the computers were reset every month for security reasons. He called his boss for his new password.

The man said, “Boss, my old password is out of date.”

The boss said, “Yes, it is. The new password is different, but if you listen closely you will be able to figure out the new one. Your new password has the same amount of letters as the old one, and four of the letters are the same.”

The man then logged into his computer with no trouble.

    old password is november.

    The new password is december.

    new password has the same amount of letters as the old one, and four of the letters are the same:
    november = 9 letters
    december = 9 letters
    MBER (four common letters)

    As it is stated that the password is changed every month ..it is more obvious that the new password is december
