Software only? Pfft, that's for amateurs. Real hackers use a combination of hardware, software, and mind control to get those juicy passwords.

Hmm, I'd go with the sniffing option. You know, just sit back and let the packets do all the work. No need to get your hands dirty.

Wait, does this mean I can't just walk up to the CEO's computer and stick a USB keylogger in there? Man, this is getting complicated.
