I knew a guy who used the Unicode character for a space in his password. He figured if anyone ever saw his password they'd think it was a space and still not be able to use it. It's silly, but it was a fun thing to learn about him.

Which character. Does it need Combination of keys or a Single key.

A combination of keys. I don't remember the code anymore.

Alt-255 was the old-school method.

I use alt 0160 for a non-line breaking space.

I can't type alt codes with my keyboard.
