The way my Bank does it, the login page asks for a different letter of the
password each time, at random... such as:

"What is the third letter of your password?"

This is not quite as secure as asking for the whole password since you have
around a 1 in 26 chance of simply guessing it, but in fact it asks for two
letters - 1st and 5th, or 2nd and 3rd, or 2nd and 6th.... together with
knowing the username this is pretty good
