1. Pay more attention to what ends an if statement (:) also watch your
indentation.
2. Code is better than my commentary. This works the way you want it to
work.
password = "qwerty"
guess = "0"
count = 0
while count != 3:
guess = raw_input("Enter your password: ")
guess = str(guess)
if guess != password:
print "Access Denied"
count = count + 1
else:
print "Password Confirmed"
break
