I am about to install it right now. I have most of my important info locked in a safe. If anything happens to me, my hon will still be lost, as he is not a computer type of guy. Everything can be done by phone as well, so all of the phone numbers are in the safe as well. k Keepass…what a great idea. I am about to install it right now.

Same is true with physical security (i.e. your home). The approach I've taken is to make it hard enough for troublemakers so that it's not worth their trouble. It's likely that there's somebody else they could mess with that would be easier, so why bother with me? And the emailing it to yourself is a great idea - but you'd want to do that nearly every time you add a new username or password... Which is a little more hassle than I'd like. It's still a smart idea - but I really wish google with come up with a better way. They're so good at doing that sort of thing.

It will even generate strong passwords for you. It makes everything so much easier for me! You can also set up different account for each website. I have my library card info and my husbands on there, then if I want to renew his library card I just choose his in the file and it opens up. I LOVE IT! I use 1Password.
