PWDHash- An amazingly simple but brilliant idea

I know many of web users use the same password on multiple websites. So basically if someone got into one of the websites (which does not store the passwords hashed), he can technically try your password on other sites (ex: ebay, hotmail, etc) and get in.

A simple solution is to just hash your common password with the domain name. Here is the link for Stanford’s research page.

I think the best solution is to create a browser extension, that hashes the password automatically. So even when you are creating the account, the password is hashed.
