allows me to use more passwords, and is great for re-installations.

ehm... when you reinstall you just need to copy the whole firefox profile... and all sessions, cookies, history, passwords, form datas, extensions, configs and everything is kept intact -_-

I suggest you to use keepass safe to generate and store securely random passwords.....

That's courting disaster In the waiting, I would consider changing a few of them.

yeah, it is NOT safe to use the same password for every site. That is just wrong, the first thing a criminal will do once he's got your password is try it out on all your accounts.

Read this, and act accordingly. with things like ebay paypal and online banking, you cant take those risks.

Not to mention if you ever do get compromised, you're going to worry over it and/or change your password for every site you've got.

It's hilarious to see someone get royally screwed by their own ignorance, though.

That seriously freaked me out at first. I hope the staff manages figure everything out... they probably will.

lol @ using the same passwords on every site. Sorry but that's basically asking for it.

Its best to have 2 passwords , one normal easy to remember to use on unimportant forums , spammish sites , demonoid like trackers etc and one random , strong pass to use only for internet banking , very high level trackers etc

use a long (but easily remembered) keyphrase for the keepass database and let it generate and store the passwords you use on the web. it makes no sense to use weak passwords on any site on the internet.
