Attention: It's not freeware!
It works fine for 30 days, but has limited functionality after that period.

As with numerous other U3 smart applications, you get to sample the entire product for a limited period of time. However, in this case, you get a "free" product that will handle 5 passwords forever whether you pay for the product or not.

I believe it is a matter of semantics. Is it free? Yes, for 5 passwords. If you want more, you can buy the product.

Is there a problem with the product or are you just saying that you don't want to pay for the fully featured package? I don't know about you, but I can no longer be productive on the Internet without a password manager like Pass2Go.

KeePass THE BEST

http://keepass.sourceforge.net/

the free, open-source, light-weight and easy-to-use password manager.

What is KeePass?
Today you need to remember many passwords. You need a password for the Windows network logon, your e-mail account, your homepage's ftp password, online passwords (like CodeProject member account), etc. etc. etc. The list is endless. Also, you should use different passwords for each account. Because if you use only one password everywhere and someone gets this password you have a problem... A serious problem. The thief would have access to your e-mail account, homepage, etc. Unimaginable.

KeePass is a free/open-source password manager or safe which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key-disk. So you only have to remember one single master password or insert the key-disk to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known (AES and Twofish). For more information, see the features page.


Is it really free?
Yes, KeePass is really free, and more than that: it is open-source (OSI certified). You can have a look at its full source and for example check if the encryption algorithms are implemented correctly.

Perhaps you wonder why I decided to make it open-source. The answer is relatively simple: in my opinion all software that has something to do with security should be open-source. Here's a quote of Bruce Schneier that sums it up pretty good:

As a cryptography and computer security expert, I have never understood the current fuss about the open source software movement. In the cryptography world, we consider open source necessary for good security; we have for decades. Public security is always more secure than proprietary security. It's true for cryptographic algorithms, security protocols, and security source code. For us, open source isn't just a business model; it's smart engineering practice.

Thank you for bringing this application to our attention. There is no reason why this application could not be made into a U3 smart application.

Check out our developer section of www.U3.com and see how you can make KeePass run from the U3 platform. Once certified, we can post it for you on U3 Software Central.
