avoid this site at all costs. when you first go on it, it shows a disgusting photo like pillowfight.jpg, and your computer won't respond to anything at all! not even the 3-finger salute! anyway, then it'll show at least 100 popups then it'll play in a quicktime audio thingee "HEY EVERYBODY I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!!!" in rounds (kinda like when you sing in rounds, if you know what i mean).
The methods by which a human can authenticate themselves are generally classified into three cases:
Something about the user
e.g., fingerprint or retinal pattern, DNA sequence (there are assorted definitions of what is sufficient), voice pattern (again several definitions), signature recognition or other biometric identifier
Something the user has
e.g., ID card, security token, software token or cell phone
Something the user knows
e.g., a password, a pass phrase or a personal identification number (PIN)

Simple answer: No
Why: UserID and Password are both from the same factor: Something the user knows
