If you're at the point of needing a 50 character passcode for your blizzard game maybe you should just download the free authenticator.


OK, where can I download that free authenticator for my Nokia S60?


Well, they do offer http://us.battle.net/support/en/article/battlenet-sms-protec... which provides an extra (but different) layer of security.


Assuming you're from one of the "supported countries", though, which aren't listed.



Nope:

    The Java-based (J2ME) versions of the Battle.net Mobile Authenticator previously
    available through this website have been discontinued.

Find an apk and toss it on an Android emulator?


Two-factor authentication shouldn't be a replacement for a good password scheme, it should supplement it. Otherwise it's one-and-a-half factor. :)
