It's many years now that I only use Portable Firefox even on my home PC. I let him store all my passwords that are on their own protected by a very long and difficult to guess Master Password. Now when I open Portable Firefox it asks me first for the Master Password and after that fills in automatically everything you need on a Webpage. Problems arouse only with some so-called secure Bank websites which use a small Java application for their login-field. In that case you have to enter your Pin again manually making it unsafe again :( The second good thing about Portable Firefox is that you always have every Bookmark and open Tabs with you.

I wanted to use my laptop in an internet cafe but they don't allow it since their computers are installed with a tracking program which logs your time in and time out. Another option is to get a pricey coffee at Starbucks so you can avail of their free wifi. :) This is why I am wary about using public computers.

Find it at http://www.kagi.com/fantasy It is built with protection against keyloggers, mouseloggers, screen capture as well as clipboard loggers so despite being similar to Neo's SafeKeys goes much further. I rank it as number one as it uses a well conceived and well implemented concept. With zero effort you can safely enter a password up to 128 characters long! I have not seen anything like that before and can only recommend it, especially when travelling.

But how can you ensure that the account data is safe with that service? Maybe they have to let themselves buy by one of the big players... Andy – that service looks really nice and interesting!
