title: Regex that allows special chars?
body: <p>The below regex requires that the password has 1 number, 1 char (upper or lower) and is a minimum of 8 in length.  But if I type in a special char it returns false.  I don't want to require a special char, but i want to allow it in this context. How can I alter this regex to allow a special char?</p>
  
  <pre><code>Regex.IsMatch(Password, "^(?=.*[0-9])(?=.*[a-zA-Z])\w{8,}$")
  </code></pre>
