    Info Password Manager

    I have been looking for a neat but powerful password manager that keeps the information local, still not convinced about placing all my passwords in the cloud yet, but after testing a few found a rather nice open source one, other people might find it useful if you need such a thing of course:

    KeePass

    Enjoy...

    I know you say you don't like the cloud ones but I use Lastpass Premium and it's very good, I have it built into my web browser and also connected to my phone, I unlock it using a fingerprint. They have loads of tweaks to increase the security.

    Thanks to evilsatan

    I use keypass and have done for a few years. I have the encrypted database stored in "the cloud" and the main program on a usb stick. You can then connect from any computer(assuming you have internet connection) with your latest database. There is also keypass for andriod that I use with the cloud stored database.

    I have been slowly loading the software with all our various passwords and seems to be working well, quite like the way it puts the data into your copy buffer for X number of secs.

    Still not sure if I will use this solution personally, will give each of your recommendations a test before deciding.
