Hey folks, as title says do you know/use some kind of wallets aka password managers to keep securely and conveniently all your www passwords. With security being tremendously important everybody should think more about using stronger and unique passwords. Keeping them at one place and have to remember only master password will be great solution.

Password manager
A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused. -

What I use us a password protected spread sheet. One password to remember, easy to backup to a memory device and transfer to a new computer. -

Most software "wallets" are loaded with PUP, Potentially Unwanted Programs, that many of the top name virus suites do not recognize.

Re: Password manager
Personally, I’m a big fan of KeePass.
Totally free, and it appears, at least so far, to be secure.
As a test, it copied a test KeePass database to a different PC that also had the app installed, and it did not open, which was exactly what I was hoping and expecting.“I think you should treat good friends like a fine wine. That’s why I keep mine locked up in the basement.” - Tim HawkinsComment

Re: Password manager
And then there is the Firefox browser. It has built in ability to save login and password for all websites and you can set a master password that must be entered before it fills in login information on a website. It can also be set to show alerts for password breached websites. You can also use Sync to synchronize across multiple devices including Droid and iPhone. My spreadsheet is more a backup now and to save logins for shopping service apps.Comment
