So.....
Anyone got any experience with these or indeed any others that you would recommend?
1. LastPasss LastPass[^]
2. KeepPass KeePass[^]
3. Identity Safe IdentitySafe[^] (I have Norton)
I like the idea of automatic entry on web forms so LastPass and Identity Safe seem better from that angle.
I like the idea of OS and local only storage so KeePass seems better from that angle.
It's for me and the family, so overly demanding on "techiness" probably won't work sonce it will probably not be used by everyone...
Any thoughts welcome.
Thanks,
M

CodeProject is your friend.  CP article (not a search link): KeePass Password Safe[^]
I haven't tried any of the other ones, but I know several other Lounge dwellers use KeePass as well.
[EDIT]
I think it is simple enough to use, but I have not tried introducing the whole concept to my wife.

It might be just me, but I think that giving away the source code of a security program might not be the most sensible thing to do.

Why? If it's implemented properly, you should be able to make everything except the private key public. If you have to hide how the program works to keep the information secure, then it's not secure.

Thanks, last time I used it there was no apparent 'touchless' integration with browsers, but I've had a look at the webpage and there are browser plugins, I might give it another go...if LastPass doesn't catch my eye first

I use lastpass and have no problems with it - just about zero set up or learning curve - does what it advertises.
Only issue I had was that the mobile versions cost money, and you really need it on every device

Me too. Easy to learn and use.

I've been using KeePass for years.

Count me another KeePass fan. Put in on a USB stick on your keyring.

Been using keepass for years. Highly recomend it.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

I too use keepass -- and it does automatic entry on web forms, so that's not a reason to exclude it.

As I said to Soren Madsen above, last time I used it there was no apparent 'touchless' integration with browsers, but I've had a look at the webpage and there are browser plugins, I might give it another go, tx.

I use keepass too... I love that there's an Android app version. I also carry a lite version of it on my phone, when I need a password on a computer and I have my phone, I just hook up my phone and bam, I have Keepass AND my encrypted database.

I use KeePass. I prefer to keep my passwords where I can see them and back them up than trust them to the cloudy internet. I don't really care how secure t'internet could/would/should be.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Based on what I can see LastPass appears more user friendly but KeePass has the advantage of the only person I can blame for losing my passwords will be me.

|
I use KeePass. I like not writing down the passwords. 
|

I have used both Keepass and Lastpass. It has been a couple of years since I used Keepass but I couldn't get the web integration working consistently. Other than that it was great.
I switched to Lastpass and would have to say it is my favorite. The lastpass database is encrypted on your system, and the encrypted database is sent to lastpass. They can not open it. Every browser I have that has the lastpass add-on in has all of my passwords. I even use it to keep none web passwords. So for me lastpass was more convenient for my needs and I don't have to carry around a usb stick.

A politician that was rare: you could actually believe what he said.
A great man, he left his part of the world a lot better than when he entered it, and there aren't that many people about whom that can be said.
My thoughts are with his family.
Rest well.

I believe the explanation is that he wasn't really a politician, the best sign for that being that he stepped back without being forced to (AFAIK).
Pity that his substitute is a politician to the core.
He was a leader though.
Politicians are always realistically manoeuvering for the next election. They are obsolete as fundamental problem-solvers.

No, not a loss at all. He had a long and successful life, gave his people and the world his best, and made us all richer thereby. It's just his time to rest, after a job well done!

Why? Why is he any more important than anyone else? Why is his loss greater than that of anyone else? What did he do for humanity? Don't see much of a legacy to be proud of in SA: the politicians have changed but there is still grinding poverty and unbridled violence. He was merely an interlude.
