Comments on: KeyDb – A Portable Password Manager http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/keydb-portable-password-manger/ Cool Websites, Software and Internet Tips Fri, 10 Feb 2012 23:43:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Data Protection http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/keydb-portable-password-manger/#comment-415001 Data Protection Wed, 28 Oct 2009 21:12:39 +0000 http://www.makeuseof.com/?p=12827#comment-415001 This one deserves a look, if for no other reason, then just for the fact that it does not require an installation. I absolutely adore these types of programs (Media Player Classic!), and wish they were more widespread. In regards to the program itself, I am glad to see that it does not require some super difficult to remember password like some of these types of products do. Those kind of requirements seem to defeat the whole purpose. I will check this one out for sure.

You can access all of your online applications and storage, without having to sign in every time! Another great feature is that GoEverywhere works on any computer. So if you're at work or a friend's house, you don't need to try to remember your passwords there either. Another way to manage your passwords is with GoEverywhere.

Author puts a lot of thought into what will make a piece of software useful. What I like about Password Kernel: -Automatic backups -Ability to generate random, secure password in each entry -Each password db encrypted and password protected -Launch of login URL from context menu Keepass looks like it has some (if not all) of these features as well, so it of course comes down to other personal factors.

Anyone using KeyDB able to answer how it's different, aside from a simpler (yet seemingly not as customizable) interface?

I've been using Sticky Password (http://www.stickypassword.com) for a few years. It not only remembers but can be set to automatically log you on when you go to a web page.
