so I was just trying to input my login info to the mybitcoin claim page. I use md5 strings for most of my passwords on different sites, unique per site and long... hard to crack. anyway, my password there is a full md5 string (33 chars) but mybitcoin only recognizes 26 chars of it. It never told me about this limitation when the site was functioning properly. I found out the limit by cutting off one char every time until it finally recognized my password.

So, just so you guys know - that's why it might not recognize your password. Only use the first 26 chars.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.
