Password Manager

[silkman]

I've been reading about password managers and wanted to know if it's worth using them and which one.
Is it really safe to use them with internet banking?

i've never seen any browser of mine offer to autocomplete a banking u&p.
the login fields on fnb are generated through javascript, so i can't see how this would happen...

the mobile client requires premium membership @$12/year, but desktop and portable versions are free.

Keepass for non browsers, lastpass for browsers.

Hi All,

I use Craftword. With Craftword you have a single "Master Password". It then generates unique strong passwords for all of your websites and programs you use, on the fly. So you get all the benefits of a "password manager" but with added security because none of your passwords are actually stored anywhere.

There is an Android version and a portable PC version which runs on Windows. Check it out.
