<description><![CDATA[. . . be creative with your rule creation. It will be the one you have to use from here on in if it is to work for you. Mine has worked for me for 20 + years without the loss of a single password.

<description><![CDATA[@41: Good idea, but there's a bit of room for improvement. I remember passwords based on a 50 character string. It's randomly generated, containing letters and numbers. It's split up in groups of five. First, I remembered the 50 character string, then all I needed to do for each site was remember four numbers. The first two defined which set of characters I would use from the string, the third defined if I should have caps lock on or off, and the 4th defined if I should hold shift or not (useful to use special characters without having to remember anything else). Modify the rule a bit and you should have nearly uncrackable passwords if you can use 20 or more characters per password and have a different one for every site and service. You can generate some random strings from here, www.random.org . It's really not that hard to memorize 50 characters. Just take a little at a time and keep typing it somewhere once every ten minutes and you should get it within three days.

However, if you're convinced you can't remember passwords, just get KeePass. It's free and open source, so you can tell it isn't putting your security at risk somehow. As I said yesterday, I honestly wonder if any software developers check http://sourceforge.net/ [i]before[/i] trying to market their products.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Ruyou GOTD for all the free software I have downloaded. Now to my comment:

I am always amused by all the work and software development dedicated to storing passwords. If you are as old as I am and involved with PCs since the early years, you probably already know what comes next.

Why bother with all this simply to remember countless passwords? Make up a password rule that works with the site, program or filename you are protecting, and then use the rule to create unique passwords for each situation. For example: rule =s
MaryHadabig[1st,3rd and last letter of site, program or filename]+ $.

example 1: password protected Excel file named password.exe. Using the sample rule, the password for this file becomes:
MaryHadabigpsd$

example 2: password for your online bank account at Eighth National Bank becomes:
MaryHadabigegk$

Make up your own rule, use the same username or login name for all and you will never forget any password, without having to run any password storing software. You also won't have to worry about remembering the password to the password software or that the software will become corrupted in some fashion.

While this method may seem complicated at first, once you get the hang of the personal (and very secret) rule you devised you can whip through your computing day without ever having to resort to a password keeper. 

Good luck and be creative with your rule creation. It will be the one you have to use from here on in if it is to work for you. Mine has worked for me for 20 + years without the loss of a single password.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I now use Roboforms and lastpass, after many trials, I find both to be great programs.  For those that can't afford Roboforms, LastPass is almost a great.  I didn't install today because I've done so much testing and I have two great apps to pick from.  

Checkout lastpass for free and
Roboforms pay for program, you won't go wrong with either.  

Thanks GOTD and users, too bad Roboforms Pro hasn't been on this site, I think a lot of the users would be amazed.

<description><![CDATA[I just want to thank all of you for your insightful comments and especially for the recommendations of alternative software programs.  I only download software from GAOTD if all of you REALLY recommend it...so lots of us do pay attention to what you say and it's truly appreciated!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Not enough features to bother with if you are using Lastpass. A word... Never, ever,never,ever,ever trust a password manager not fail and lose your passwords. A password manager is a convenience and should be safe.
But always keep a list of your passwords ... remember I warned you :)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[My favorite: <b><a href="http://mitto.com" rel="nofollow">Mitto (http://mitto.com)</a></b>. 

It's a safe and easy to use online password manager. They are certified by McAfee and TRUSTe, and it's free! I use it from all of my computers (work, home, laptop, smartphone) and they even integrate an extra layer of security by sending you SMS messages to your cell phone when you log in from unrecognized computers, just like my bank.]]></description>
