Publisher's description of PasswordMaker

PasswordMaker screenshot
From LeahScape:

One password to rule them all. If you're like most people, you have a few passwords that you use over and over again on many different Web sites. You know this isn't secure, but you do it anyway. Because it's difficult to remember a unique password for each and every Web site that requires one. PasswordMaker manages all your online accounts using either new, uncrackable passwords it creates, or your existing passwords. It even automatically populates Web forms for one-click login. Moreover, passwords aren't stored anywhere--they are calculated over and over again as they're needed--so there's nothing to be lost, hacked, or stolen.

Version 1.6.2 includes unspecified updates.

Editor's review of PasswordMaker

  • 3.0 stars

  • "PasswordMaker"
  • Version reviewed: PasswordMaker 1.6.2

The publisher's promise that once you "get" this free password manager for Firefox, you won't be able to live without it. After trying it out, we're not so sure. The add-on is installed as easily as all Firefox extensions, and is then easily accessed from your context menu, Tools menu, or toolbar icon.

The program is designed to generate secure passwords and enter them with two clicks. The reality is more complex for every secure account you already have set up. You're forced to change the password to one that PasswordMaker generates or use the program's plain, multitabbed Advanced Options window to set up different accounts.

Unlike many other password managers, including Firefox's, the program doesn't appear when you log in to inquire if you want to save it the information. Testers with numerous accounts complained account set-up time was too great. PasswordMaker did quickly fill in the password for accounts it handled, but the process wasn't easier or faster than with similar tools.

Users who download this application should note the online Wikipedia-style user guide primarily applies to later versions than stored here. In the end, we just weren't persuaded that PasswordMaker was an add-on we couldn't live without, or one that could surpass Firefox's default password tools.
