Password Protection for Windows

User Reviews

• Very simple entry format.

  nsolent_mynxSeptember 17, 2010

  Pros

  If you choose to enter URL with corresponding user ID and password, program will automatically have your browser go there, or just copy user ID and password to clipboard for automatic entry.

  Cons

  While you can add columns for more info for each entry, apparently you are limited as to how many rows (entries) you can have. BIG CON: tracking down merkinawards.com current (2010) web site! ! !

  Summary

  Ease of use is a big plus.

• Not As Good As Other Free Password Programs

  rgknowltonMarch 20, 2008

  Pros

  Advertised Blowfish 448 encryption. <p> <p>VERY basic interface and features. <p> <p>Software is free but you have to go to their website and register to get a free key.

  Cons

  It does the job, but its interface is not as easy or as clean as programs like Anypassword and Access Manager 2. Also this program lacks the extra fields and comments section that Anypassword and Access Manager 2 have.

  Pros

  Cons

  It locked me out of the software. I went to the site it suggested and found nothing. Couldn't find Password Protection V4.1. I couldn't fine the serial number, nor the key. Read Me docutment was useless.

• Works nicely - but then locks you out!

  midnight.dreamSeptember 22, 2007

  Pros

  -It seemed to be a very nice and easy program to use right when you start with it; a quick way to keep all your passwords in one place when you use a lot of different logins.

  Cons

  -The very big downfall of this program is that after about a week, you log in and it tells you that you must register. Okay, it's supposed to be free, but the "website" they have listed does not even EXIST. This supposed serial key is impossible to gain, and the program stays frozen, locking you out of actually accessing any of the information you have stored. <p> <p>-I highly recommend that NO ONE downloads this again. It's, in essence, a waste of time and space on your computer. You end up losing all those entered passwords. This should not even be listed on download.com

• Registration code nowhere to be found

  absolutelyleeJune 19, 2007

  Pros

  At first I thought this program was great. It had a great way to keep track of IDs and passwords. I used a few times over the 30 day "trial-period". I never bothered to register while I was using it. I started putting passwords in there without writing them down anywhere. Then I opened it up a few days after the trial period and it locked all of the functions and told me to register. When I went to the Merkin Awards website, I found that domain name is no longer registed. I found the last cached page on the internet archive is from 2005. So I did what any Microsoft user would do, I set the clock backward a few days. When I opened the application again, everything was available again. So at least I got my passwords back.

  Cons

  Merkin Awards website no longer exists for users to register. <p>Owner needs to remove registration locks from software. <p>No technical support.

• Terrible

  jevans369June 17, 2007

  Pros

  Easy Interface. But have been doing the same exact thing in MS Word.

  Cons

  Everytime I log in it says "incorrect username/password and I know it is not. Keep having to install new username/password. When trying to go to help online it takes you to the mfg. site with links to OTHER sites. No help.
