Tired of clicking "I forgot my password"?

How many accounts do you have?

  • Hotmail account
  • Gmail account
  • Business email account
  • Private email account
  • etc.

And you've also got some accounts for websites and on-line forums:

  • Codeproject
  • Your own website (maintanance)
  • Ebay
  • etc.

So, do you use the same username/password for all these accounts? Off course not, that would be a security hazard... (ahum).

Now, here's the perfect tool to keep track of all those username/passwords: KeePass.
You can add any kind of account: internet, windows, Network, Email. You name it!

The database behind it is nicely encripted (AES and Twofish) so nobody can touch your private data.
A very nice feature is it doesn't need installing so you can place the whole thing on a USB stick and take your account info anywhere!

I'd rather go for an encrypted drive which can contain more than just website/passwords.

See TrueCrypt, an excellent opensource encrypted drive/partitionar. I use it on a both a flash drive and external HD.
