Remembering Passwords is a tough job these days as there are many services in which we create an account . A good option you might consider would be to have a same password for all account but this can be highly risky . If someone gets hold of this password , you will be in big big trouble . Even remembering diffrent user names can be a tough call these days . So a need arises to store this confidential information in a secure and safe place . Thats where “KeePass Password Safe” comes handy .
KeePass is free as well as open source password manager which can store our passwords in a single database in a secure manner . The database can be locked using a Master Password or a Key Disk or both . So instead of remembering all those passwords we have to remember a single password or use a key disk .

Some features of this software

I love KeyPass as well and use it. But, I am turning to online password managers for managing my non-essential passwords and blogged about my experience with an excellent tool recently.
