Sounds almost as bad as my mom having her real stickynotes on her monitor with passwords.

Actually, if you have the toolbar installed, there's an icon that's even smaller than the Firefox one which turns orangy with some scribble in it that let's you know you have a "stick note" to view. You just click on it.

Sounds like RoboForm, KeePass and some of these other products are worth a look, but they'd have to be pretty good to make me take the time to learn a new product and convert a bazillion passwords!

Passwords Max [...] does have an export utility to export the database to a comma-delimited text file

From KeePass Help:

KeePass imports and exports data from/to CSV files in the following format:

"Account","Login Name","Password","Web Site","Comments"

--- End quote ---

So you could try exporting from Passwords Max and importing into KeePass, though you'd probably have to fiddle with the CSV formats to make the fields match. A good tool for doing that sort of thing is CONVERT by Bruce Guthrie. It's a DOS program, but works well.

Does Passwords Max HotSync with Palm? :-\

Hmmmm...Good question. I saw a few references to doing this such as:

"Passwords Max (www.authord.com/PP) syncs with Palm and Pocket PC devices. It tracks passwords, Web logins, credit cards, bank account data, Social Security numbers and more."
Ref: www.greensheet.com/gs_online.php?story_id=300

But I can't find anywhere how it is done. Couldn't find any reference to "Palm" on the Passwords Max website or support forum.

It does have an export utility to export the database to a comma-delimited text file. I'm sure there is some sort of Palm utility that would take that file in and format it to something readable on the Palm.

My last Palm was a Palm III from the 1980's {I'm aging myself) so I not really up on Palm capabilities of today.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

P.S. I'll submit a question to the Passwords Plus support forum and get back to you.

Post subject: Palm Device Syncronization
Is there an easy way to synchronize the Passwords Max database to a Palm device? Do you know of any Palm application that would do this?

You would need to export your password list to a PDF (using Reports).
We have plans for a WinCE module in 2008.

rjbull,
Thanks. I'll keep this in mind if I decide to switch.
