The Firefox password manager vulnerabilityThe Firefox password manager vulnerabilityPosted Nov 30, 2006 20:59 UTC (Thu) by jstAusr (guest, #27224)Parent article: The Firefox password manager vulnerability
Does anyone use a stand alone password manager? Are there any good ones? I don't like storing the passwords in the browser because I don't see how that could ever be safe, but I am unable to remember them all either. Isn't an encrypted file to be used in case of brain malfunction just as good as anything else?

Personally I get firefox to remember all my web passwd's, as well as having them in revelation, they are all unique and 90+% of them it wouldn't matter if they were compromised for a few days. Like OMG someone stole my mailman admin passwd, stop the press.

It's written in Java, so the OS doesn't matter, and uses blowfish encryption.
