KeePass is what I use.
The password database that KeePass uses can be accessed from linux and windows. For Linux you'll need KeePassX.
Other pluses:
+The software is portable.
+Generates super strong passwords.
+Along with the password to access your password database, there is an option to have a "key file" required. You put this file onto something like a jump drive, making it necessary to have your password and the jump drive if you want to access the database. I have a spare keyfile on a CD in my deposit box at the bank.

Addendum/Protip: If you know an alternative keyboard layout like colemak or dvorak, you can easily make pretty secure passwords for, say, a login screen at work: type your password on the Qwerty layout as if it were the alternate keyboard layout.
For instance. WeakPassword on Colemak is WkanRaddw;sg on Qwerty. Then, when the desktop loads, so will your alternate layout and everything will be normal.
