mcafeesecure password security fail

I’ve been using KeePass at the office and have really started letting it manage the hundreds of passwords I need to keep track of as a systems admin. Out of all of the sites I use, this one surprised me. The default 20 character KeePass password has failed mcafeesucure.com. Really? Too long? For a website security company 16 characters is all you need apparently. Even their giant text box html can handle 40 characters! 🙁
