Lots of password managers out there KeePass, Clipperz, Passbay, Passpack Some are computer specific & require a

I recommend Passpack!

Changing Settings
Packing and Saving
Set a default time for Passpack to lock up your account if it is inactive If you enable 1 Click Auto-login, this won’t
matter Auto-save changes, yes or no?
Choose NO if you want to save your changes manually
Choose YES if you want it to save all changes automatically
Startup Options
Pick which tab you would like to open first Home is the default I prefer changing this to Passwords
What to do next? Unpack everything, just Favorites, or a
variety of other options I prefer “unpack everything – then turn on
1 Click Login”
Welcome Message
Customize a welcome message Provides protection against phishing attacks
Say YES to the 8 boxes screen
Make sign in easier with “Remember Me” But only if your computer isn’t shared!
Auto-login & 1 Click Login
Great way to speed up logging in to your accounts!
Turn auto-login on
Install your button in your bookmarks
How 1 Click Login Works
Keep Passpack open in a separate tab in your browser
Go to the login page for the site you want to use
Click your Passpack It! button to login automatically
If you have multiple logins saved for that site, Passpack will let you choose which one to use
Voila!
Lock it up or Logout
Lock up your account if leaving your computer unattended
OR Logout when you’re all done
