Microsoft needs to buyout and then supply a stupidly simple, easy to use, password manager.

They need to test is against hoardes of naive users.

They need to encourage those users to have one long strong password to unlock the safe, and then to have strong random passwords for everything else.

Having seen how some computer users operate I guess any OS supplier has a hard job here. See, for example, the 'power users' who turned off UAC.
