which user account manager do you use?
Anyone use an online, or offline (software based) user account manager, to store logins,passwords, etc.
I know a popular one is Roboform, curious what you guys use |
After having a fatal disk failure and losing my roboform info stored on that disk, I went and got myself a biometric password manager.
|
I use RoboForm and it rocks!

I store all my passwords in my mind. Unlimited capacity. ;)

Other than the password manager built into my browser, I use a simple
technique that makes it easy to remember different passwords for different sites. At least it's very easy after the first couple of days, once you get used to it. Come up with a simple rule like: the password is the first four letters of the site, followed by "8564", so gfy8564 yaho8564 wamu8564 Except being that simple, someone who knows a couple of your passwords can guess the others, so do something to make it a less likely for someone to notice the pattern, such as: ohay8564 umaw8564 (the letters are backwards) or better: uspp8564 eszu8564 (use the letter one position to the right, which is obtuse enough that someone looking at a password or two without any knowledge of your system is unlikely to figure out.) No need to remember your passwords that way, just remember the rule. Of course you can come up with your own rule, perhaps alternate between the letters from the site and your own five letters: mgofryrr mwoarmrur (morris alternated with the sites gfy and wamu) You could of course reverse the letters and alternate them, whatever. You'll quickly get used to your own simple rule for choosing passwords. |
roboform is the best solution ever! saves me a lot of time. i don't think there is another solution

JMB Soft (http://www.jmbsoft.com/) used to have a site with free software (jmbfree.com) I believe. He offered a password management script (password safe) and that is what I use. It is great.... although I don't know how to get ahold of it now. I would contact JMB.
