Hey, I had a software named as Skipper, which can automatically remembers your field entries in websites and can reproduce when you want. It very simple to use and you can avoid typing all your details when you signup. I found this software very useful to me and it was a firefox addin. When I started PTC sites, I jsut searched for a password remember software and came accoss this. How many of you are using a software like this. Is it was safe to using these softwares. I am using this software because I believe in Firefox which is my favorite browser.

I think that would really be great especially if you have lots of interests and you visit new sites often. It's very time consuming and annoying to keep on typing all those information again and again. It's also good that it's a plug-in for Firefox. I've been using Firefox for quite sometime now and it's more secure it is a plug-in instead of a totally third-party software.
In any case, it could still be vulnerable as most of the hackers may know that this can keep vital information that they may want. But still, it's a good plug-in and thanks for sharing this.

We can trust some sites those are far way from hackers. But you are correct there is always a chance to get problems if we use this softwares. For that only what I am doing is, I won't login my banking and personal sites in firefox, which makes me safe. For those sites I tries to login from internet explorer.
Anyway you can download this addin from their site at the following link.

Or from mozila firefox add-ons site;

I have and still use this type of software, I now use roboform and I love it. I used to use Gator, then found this one and I have been with it ever since. It halps fill out forms and remembers the passwords and sign-ins. I would be lost without it as I have alot of survey places and such.

I have 2 firewalls on my computer and I have the say on what can connect with my computer and what cant. Also what can download or upload thru my computer. It also tells me what has tried and what was allowed or not allowed. I have been using these for about 14 years and I have never had a problem.

So you now completely depended on your software. What would you do if they steal your passwords. Have you ever thought about it. I was very curious to know about this. Because I am using the software from about a year. I don't know in how many sites that I had a account. If something goes wrong with these softwares, what should we have to do.

If someone virus breaks your firewalls and they reveals all your personal information. This may be a normal case even when you are using those firewalls and antivirus. No one is guarantee that your data is completely safe with respect to vulnerable threats. So we have to take some precautions. Even though you are not getting any problems, no one is sure that they won't get any problems. I suggest you to have a some precaution while you are using any software for handiling your personal information.
