Wow. That would be a wonderful game of treasure hunt. Fortunately I've not come across that so far :D

What happened to me once is that a long-time password of mine got truncated as the website lowered it's maximum password length, and the login page didn't truncate, so my full correct password suddenly stopped working. The pain.
Pretty sure Microsoft did this at some point. Maybe for Hotmail.
