A highly recommended and freeware password manager.
PassPort is a free password manager letting you manage passwords securely. It stores passwords in a database which is then locked behind one master key making it very secure (depending on what you choose as your master password!). It makes remembering passwords easy, because you only have to remember one password in order to access all the others in the database. The database its self is secured with encryption algorithms. PassPort 1.1 also includes a secure password generator with drag-and-drop.
Since it's a freeware program, we highly recommend it over many paid solutions out there. With the unavailability currently of many Firefox toolbars, it might be the right time to switch over to a full password manager instead of relying on things like Google's auto-form-filler (currently unsupported in the newest version of Firefox).
Accessing PassPort is easy, since it rests in the system tray until you want to use it. It also supports automatic filling of online forms, making it one of handiest password managers which involves very little effort on your part.
