You can set the lockbox location and the password during the setup procedure. After the setup is done, lockbox will be hidden and locked until you enter the valid password.

Folder Lockbox Control Panel allows you easily change basic lockbox parameters: lockbox location, protection status, password. In addition, skinned user interface lets you choose from different skins to select the most comfortable look and feel of the software.

If the list of your Web passwords is larger than ten entries, than Password Manager is the right tool for you. You won't have to desperately try to recall the right password, or look it up in your notebook. Mozilla, Firefox and Thunderbird have comfortable password managers, though if you compare them to the Protected Storage of Internet Explorer or WAND of Opera, the latter ones are more powerful and functional.

However, human memory is not without flaws, programs can freeze or get dysfunctional, and the operation system can refuse to boot up. In this case, you will need help to recover your lost or forgotten passwords.

Mozilla Password Recovery is the program that help you to reveal the autofill passwords for Firefox and Mozilla, as well as the account passwords of the Thunderbird mail client. The program traditionally offers you two recovery modes: automatic and manual. With this utility you can also recover passwords protected with the User Master Password, thus being one step ahead of its competitors.

Features:

• Recover all Mozilla, Firefox and Thunderbird autocomplete data as well as e-mail account passwords
• Decrypt passwords protected with the User Master Password
• Choose between two (automatic and manual) recovery modes
• Export passwords to text, html or excel files
• Multilingual passwords support
• Friendly wizard interface
• Detailed help

With the number of available online tools and services, you'll be probably creating a couple of new usernames and personal profiles everyday. The question is, are you sure you remember al those passwords?

If your memory is already crammed with usernames, logins, password and the likes, you definitely need a password manager like Password Dragon. This simple tool takes care of all your passwords, enabling you to save them all in a safe, categorized database. Plus, being a Java-based app, you can run it on any operating system and even take it with you in a USB memory stick. Then, whenever you need you use your passwords, simply run the program and select the one you want.

To be honest, Password Dragon is possibly not the nicest app you've ever seen in terms of graphic design. Its interface supports skins but as any other Java tool, design is not the strongest point in this program. However Password Dragon does make up for it by presenting a really handy tool with a wide array of options to manage and protect your passwords.

You'll be able to create a complete entry for each of your passwords, including a password strength indicator and also a password generator in case you run out of ideas. The database is then encrypted and protected by one single, master password – the only one you'll need to remember from now on. The program also includes support to export and import your database.

Password Dragon lets you manage all your passwords in a straightforward –though somewhat dull – interface. It includes interesting extra tools such as a password strength measurer and a password generator.

Creating new passwords every time I register for a online service is getting harder and harder. But before starting to use the same word everywhere and thus compromising my security, I'd rather use a password manager.

If you're in the same situation, Acebit Password Depot is probably your best choice. This comprehensive manager can handle all the usernames and passwords for all kinds of services, from online banking to FTP servers, including forums, blogs, email addresses and just about any other place where you're requested a password.

All your passwords are stored in a single database that can be saved in various locations (local drive, USB device, Internet server) and protected with a master password, a key file or both. You can organize your passwords in different categories and also assign an expiry date to them so that you're forced to change them on a regular basis.

In case you run out of ideas when coming up with new passwords, the program includes a password generator but I didn't find it that useful: it grabs characters from a Matrix-like code stream and doesn’t really produce usable passwords.

Acebit Password Depot still keeps an ace up its sleeve though: its seamless integration with your web browser, which enables you to manage passwords comfortably while you're browsing the Internet without having to change from one application to another.

Acebit Password Depot is as near to perfection as any password manager would like to reach: easy enough for the beginner and full of handy tools for expert users

Do you have too many passwords, which expire on different dates, are subject to different rules, or are managed with different tools?

RoboForm2Go is a very convenient tool that not only takes care of all your login names and passwords for different sites, but also enables you to carry them around in your USB memory stick.

The program is installed in the USB memory device and then appears integrated as a toolbar in your web browser. From this moment on, every time you log into a given website, RoboForm2Go will offer you the possibility to save that information as a new entry in its database. Then, the next time you try to log into that website, a single click on the program's toolbar will be enough to get you through.

Besides the password management functionality, RoboForm2Go features a small notepad for private notes and a password generator. All the program's functions can be accessed either the aforementioned toolbar or a small icon in the system tray. As for security, there's no need to worry: the program uses the AES algorithm and a master password to protect all your stored data.

Despite being a really useful app, especially because you can take it with you anywhere, there are still some points I didn't like about RoboForm2Go. First, it's difficult to create new entries without visiting the actual website. I think it would have been much easier to let users add new entries on the fly, without having to visit every single webpage. Also, the password manager is quite limited, allowing you to create only one password at a time.

RoboForm2Go is a convenient, safe way to store all your passwords and have them with you at all times.

KeyPass is a versatile password manager that types your passwords for you. Unlike other password managers that require tedious cut-and-paste or drag-and-drop operations to enter your passwords, KeyPass types the passwords for you when a user-defined "hot key" is pressed. As such, it works with any browser or application, including web browsers, terminal emulators and corporate services.

The information is encrypted using 448-bit blowfish algorithm and a master password is required to unlock the information in the database. This means that only you can access secret information such as passwords, credit card details, PIN numbers and any sensitive documents you have.

Unlike other password managers that write configuration information to the Windows registry, KeyPass stores everything in the encrypted database so that it can be run without prior installation. This allows you to carry all your sensitive information with you wherever you go. Simply plug the device into any PC and immediately access all your information and passwords.
