I'm not sure if I saw it here or not and I'm too damn lazy to search for it but I'm looking for a good - preferably freeware - password wallet type program.

Suggestions .....

I use roboform. Not freeware but will handle 10 passwords for free. I use both the Desktop install and the portable install. Well worth the cost. If you look around the internet you can find discounts of up to 50% on the price.

I was just going to suggest KeePass. I haven't used it personally, but a colleague does, and loves it.

Keepass is what I use. I keep it on a thumb drive and keep it password protected. I used Access Manager for about 8 years but the free version can't be installed on a thumb drive only the commercial one so I tried keepass and found it similar enough in function that I just kept it. I wanted to keep my password collection outside of my computer for additional security. The thumb drive never leaves my desk but only goes in the front USB port when I need to log on somewhere, then back out.

I never let browsers "save" log in info for me.

Messes made. Jobs left undone. FREE estimates.

I put all my PW and codes in a text doc on a 128meg flash drive.

Even if my machine were to be "hacked" they can't get my passwords off the flashdrive in the desk drawer. hehe

Keepass works very well. I also keep CD Keys in it as well. But I also write them on the disc if I can.

Roboform is really a sweetheart, give it a go

I've used SplashID. You can categorize passwords, IDs, credit card numbers, etc and it can generate passwords to your specifications. It uses Blowfish encryption. I can run on a computer and on a smart phone and synchronize between them. Not free but not expensive.

What matters is not the years in one's life but the life in one's years.
