I discovered a Tool called "Free Password Manager Plus,"by Billeo. This came with lots of neat features.

I use a notebook in addition to my 4 tiered system because not all systems allow me to use my passwords (due to restrictions like number of characters and required mixes of numbers and letters, etc.). <strong>pelf: No problem, I benefited from that article, and hope that some of my readers will, too :)</strong> Thanks for the mention!

Just reading about all of your accounts has exhausted me! I suppose if I stop to think about it, I probably have the same amount myself... I keep all of my accounts and their passwords in my address book software. If anything ever happened to my computer I'd be completely lost, but it's worked quite well for the last 5 years or so... <strong>pelf: Address book software?
