Password Shield for Windows

User Reviews

• It works just fine for me

  Synecte9/20/2017

  Pros

  I like the fact that I dont have to waste time

  Cons

  I dont really know I would like to make database folders my self

  Summary

  I am a freelancer and multiple websites give me headaches, so yes this works fine for me, occasionally I work from the public coffee shop and leaving the lap to ask for a drink is stupid am aware, but locking all the passwords is good to have. Anyway, the part where you don't have to wreck your brain to think of solid password is fine by me.

• nice, but...

  Pros

  This program looks pretty and easy to use

  Cons

  It is not actually very secure, and does not lock folders, it just hides them. This means there is a whole host of ways to access them still (either through Linux, or even via specialist folder browsing software on Windows). This is especially a bad point as it costs allot (maybe as freeware it would be suitable for kids or hiding stuff from inexperienced users). If you want to lock folders, use BCArcive as this actually encrypts your files safely.

  Pros

  Looks good, but ...

  Cons

  I agree with the previous user. This version is crippled to a max of 3 entries and an evaluation period of 30 days. <p>DOWNLOAD.COM PLEASE RECATEGORISE THIS. The license is not free, and it does have limitations

  Pros

  Summary

  What they don't tell you is that if you want to use more than THREE passwords, you have to purchase the full version. Try RoboForm; it has more features and you can enter 30 passwords for free.

  Summary

  Can't get better than this "FOR FREE" i only gave a thumb down because this program has a leak. If the people who pushed into this leak then they can bypass any passwords from any user using this!!

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  Simple, easy to use and more secure than others on the market. Trojans are a real threat nowadays and my system actually had one whcih picked up one of my online accounts (lucky it wasnt a secure account) but all of my username/passwords on this software allowed complete protection. The software itself is easily useable with most systems and my PGP is now fully protected by this software as before you had to type your password into the software.

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  Simple, small and secure. I have used this now for 4 months and its great for travelling (keep secure passwords on disk without the risk of ever having them read) and the drag and drop features work brilliant in every form I tried. I have useed it on Win 98, ME and XP without a problem!

• Wow-really different!

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  I expected the usual insecure password manager, but this one has proved me wrong. Strong encryption (and without the ability for anyone to see the passwords on screen is a big bonus),the onscreen keyboard works a treat-no Mouse clicks/No keyboaard entry..very cool. Password Shield team returned an email within 2 hours, overall a nice simple secure product.

• Did what it had to

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  I just tested this excellent Password Manager on two of my keyboard logger programs and even did a little tweaking to see if I could pick up any traces of my inputed password via drag and drop. Nothing. It works great and is a real protection against those nasty trojons that are flying round the net today...
