Time for a new password!

OK...so I've been slacking on the brainteasers, so here's an easy one to start off the new year!

John works as a secret agent for the CIA. As such, security is and privacy is a top priority. On February 29, he arrived at work only to discover that he couldn’t log on to his computer...his password wasn’t working. Then he realized that passwords are updated and reset automatically for security purposes every month. He immediately contacted Bob, their IT expert. Here’s their conversation:
John - “Hey Bob, my password is out of date. I need a new one for this month.”
Bob - “Yes John, you’re right. You’re password is different, but if you listen carefully to me now, then you should be able to figure out the new one for this month: It has the same amount of letters as your old password, but only 4 of the letters are the same.”
John - “Thanks Bob!”

With that, John went to his office and correctly logged onto his computer.
What was the new password?

Bonus: What was his old password?

Privacy

old password security?

old one was: Out of Date

New one is: Different

I love these.

yeppers! you guys are too good! told 'ya it was an easy one...but fun the same...I love these things too

I responded to this earlier but I'm afraid my computer seized up on me and now I'm on an older machine.

I came to the same conclusion as you guys but I was really confused by the 4 letters being the same part?

D,E and T are the only 3 letters the two passwords have in common.

The F's and the E's in the word different.

D, E, F, T = same 4 letters...

try this out everyone...it'll help explain why a lot of us may have thought only 3 letters were the same too:

How many "F's" - upper and lower case - are in this passage?

Kant… accepted the notion of things-in-themselves existing independently of any knowledge… As his starting point [he took it] that any specific knowledge we claim to have of such and such an external object is obtained through our senses, [and] hence is at best only indirect and questionable… What we know directly and with certainty is therefore only the set of our ideas. [For example,] the very notion of causality [is] a priori mode of human understanding, in other words, an idea. - d’Espagnat
