password manager

« on 09/02/2010, 12:20 »
I have just installed a new PC running windows 7. For emails I use firefox 3.6. On my old PC I used easy password manager but I have been told this does not work with windows 7.
please can anyone recommend a system to install?

Are you referring to webmail.
If so you don't need Password Manager as Firefox will remember them on it's own

With Firefox I use snixper (search for it in the addon/extensios) it renumbers usernames/passwords etc. I also use xmarks to backup my bookmarks across machines.

Yes, but Firefox does this anyway. Whenever you enter a new password it gives you the option to remember it. You can manage the saved passwords by clicking on Tools - Options - Security, then the Saved Passwords button.
