After signing up at so many forums and sites it gets hard remembering all those bloody passwords and I try not to use the same passwords for obvious reasons.
So what I want is want is a password storer which would store all my passwords and when needed I can simply open the program and type in the site and it'll show me the password, or similar.
Also, I want the actual program to have a password to activate or open before use so other people can't use my passwords. I know passwords can be stored in windows but thats not secure and I regulary clear cookies and temps etc so it forgets them anyway.

I keep mine in a text file.
Then I zipped the file so I could add a password.
If the number of entries is large, you can search for site names using "find next" (F3).

Hey Shady, I used to use "Account Login". You can store all password and sites there and there is a master password to open it. To open a forum or a site just right click on it(its in the taskbar) and select the site you want to go. Rest it does automatically...filling usernames and passwords etc.
Hope this helps!

Immediately stop listening to anyone who recommends Gator ;)

You dont need a program. All you need is a text file and file and folder encryption enabled in xp (ntfs file system). Put your passwords and everything on it and encrypt it. Thats all a simple password storing program does anyway is keeps all your passwords in encrypted format.

yeah, thats the obvious option but the program really does make things easier.
