Ask HN: safe program for showing saved passwords
Hello..
I need a safe program to view all the saved passwords on my laptop... including passwords saved on internet explorer, firefox, and bla bla bla..
Waiting for your answer, and thanks in advance,
Ahmed.
- sdiwakar 16y agoI'm guessing you are on Windows, so I'd recommend Keepass (google for official web-site). Store all your passwords in there or any similar password store. If Windows 7 now has the ability to securely store passwords ala MacOSX's Keychain or a Java's Keystore, that could also be an option worth investigating.

- jason_slack 16y agoCut your loses, reset your passwords and use a program called "your brain" Serious, I am not being an ass. I remember all of my complex passwords for everything, no hackers can get to them, no hidden piece of paper in my office and no post-it note on my monitor.
- appl3star 16y agoUse 1password (1password.com) - and keep an online copy of your 1password password file at cloudsafe.com
