This handy application alleviates the problem of forgotten passwords and PIN numbers by storing and organizing login information. Password Safe's well-designed interface makes it easy to set up multiple user accounts for a wide variety of account information including e-mail logins, bank accounts, and software licenses. It also lets you modify templates to suit your requirements and quickly stores user IDs, passwords, and associated Web addresses in its encrypted database. Password Safe includes an autofill wizard that lets you define a sequence of keystrokes and inserts your username and password information. We greatly appreciate the security options provided in this application, which include a master password, an autolock feature that locks the program after a specific time, and the ability to clear Clipboard contents. Password Safe even provides random hard-to-break passwords using a handy password generator. In our tests, the program successfully launched associated URLs and effectively inserted our login names and passwords. Our only complaint is you need to focus the cursor on the appropriate field before launching the autofill feature. Despite the cost, users of all levels will appreciate the many safeguards and easy-to-use features that come with Password Safe.
What’s new in version 3.3

OK, ok, I did'nt try all. But this tool is really great. I use it for all my internet passwords, PINs and everything.
<p>I selected it, because it has also a Pocket PC version that works on the same data files. The program is really optimized for storing this secret stuff. Great. It get's a big recommendation from me.
<p>Good work!!!
<p>And no, I don't get money for this :-) Just like the tool.
Cons
...still searching.
Summary
Would be nice, if only it worked

Pros
Simple interface, simple to understand. The help file was great.
Cons
The trial version only allows for 10 entries. I thought that meant 10 password entries, but no, it must mean 10 field entries because I could only record 1 password. If you want to try logging into more than one site, you have to edit the one little password allowed. However, when I went back online later and tried to open the app again, it wouldn't accept the Master Password - the same one I'd used several times while I was trying it out earlier and which is visible on a stickie note pasted to the edge of my computer screen - right before my eyes!

<p>The trial version is useless on my XP system. Why would I expect anything different from the purchased version. Nevertheless, I went to their website looking for help. This is what I found:
<p>
<p> * Web site of bagus-software
<p> * Support Web site Not provided
<p> * Support e-mail Not provided
<p> * Support phone Not provided.
<p>
<p>Should be called bogus-software.
