Spotted this recently, would prefer if it was open sourced / portable app but interesting nonetheless.

I've now started using OneNote to store passwords, found out you can password protect an individual section within a notebook which is nice

keepass works on a java phone as well sync via web.
Even in this I'm cryptic about the really important ones and use one source password I remember.
e.g.
theusual+mybank

Just use NCC1701D instead - or is that just trekkies?

I use excel but as well as password I encrypt it using vba. Also for stuff that needs to be really secure I mostly put hints I can understand rather than actual values like my "1st 5 old phone number"

The corollary to that is that you may need to appoint someone who is technically competent with computer stuff for that role, or nominate a technically able person to support the actual executor.

Originally posted by Tarquin Farquhar View PostAn old friend of mine died recently and his widow saw some of that. I was admin contact on his domains so I could change owner to her without any problem, but not everything was so smooth. Fortunately she is not dependent on his money so she can wait for the legal system to take its course.
I had a note in my diary to do the same in reverse, make him one of the contacts on my domains. I suppose I can cross that off now
Seriously, an impenetrable mess and lack of access to money would be an awful thing to leave her with, on top of your passing. It can be trouble enough: insurance may not come through fast enough to keep the mortgage paid, for example.

I can only hope that she can guess my password! (And also hope that the router doesn't need rebooting, as she doesn't know the password to that, either)

I just use "password" - works every time for me.
And everyone else apparantly.
