Has two versions, I've been running 1.6 for a while, and switched to version 2.09 — I am not sure I like version 2.9 having some auto type problems, but I'm going to give it a few days.
Things I like about it
I use lastpass (lastpass.com). I used to have and love Roboform, but needed something new when I switched to Linux as my primary OS. I tried KeePass, but was spoiled by Roboform’s seamless integration to my browsers and I missed my secure notes and custom fields. Lastpass was much closer to what I was used to. I plunked down the bit of change for the advanced feature so I get to use my yubikey for authentication and I have the blackberry software, which lets me keep an offline copy readily accessible.
There is a bit of trust hurdle, as you are storing your passwords in the “cloud.” I do not use it for my banking sites and such, but for everything else, I have enjoyed it. You might want to check it out and let me know what you think.
Also, I have been thinking about using, instead of lastpass’s built in password generator, using supergenpass (superpass.com) That way, my password(s) are not stored anywhere. The passwords are hashes of the domain name and a user-provided passwod (called salt in the hash world.) I have not gotten it to work well with my IE8 at work, yet, but I suspect they will get that working soon.
