[Simply Computers] password manager ?

 

I am studying the option of using a password manager, and I want the input of this group. I want reports of experience AND opinion.

I have read reviews of both LastPass and Keepass, and snippets of comments on several others. Keepass is free, stores a database within the users control, got good reviews and has a moderately complex interface; Lastpass uses an off-line storage (Recently compromised), got good reviews and is reported to be simple to use.

Several of the more respected reviews got a pass from me, because, (with obvious bias) they reported only on programs they were dealers for.

I am not committed to any, and not even to doing this. However, the balance between security and memory is tipping to the "HELP!" side (after all, I AM 84)and I am starting here.

Help!--Bill--W4BSG
