Good security is never easy. I am leery of those programs that
automatically put passwords into forms, because the easier it is for you to
use, the easier it is to abuse, and the greater the exposure. However,
Password Manager XP is a very secure way to manage your passwords, in a way
that you can leave on your computer, or in a flash drive. Password Manger
XP has  multiple levels of severe encryption,  with auto disabling
features, and no hacker is going to be able to break into the data base
without the key. Period.

The trick, I think, is to come up with a good 12 character, or greater key,
that you can remember without ever writing it down. Then never share it,
and use that for the password management program. Use Password Manager XP
to create user names, and passwords for everywhere else.
