I've been using KeePass for a long time, as much because it works as because your passwords are stored on a local machine. http://keepass.info/
I'll take a look at this if the serial still works (it does as of this post), but it's kind of annoying that you can't install (re-install) on another machine, according to the download page. Another caveat is having to upload passwords in a secure folder if you want to run the software from a flash drive.

In order to activate the software with the key, the user must register with AceBit, providing name, company, email, street address, and phone number...all before trying out the software. While the EULA clearly states this, I didn't see it in the program after the install.

Unfortunately, this version is specific to Softwareload. They've arranged to have the main GUI display links to other manufacturer's software than AceBit. ISTM that qualifies as adware and I prefer not to have it on any of my machines. Guess I'll stay with KeePass, but thanks anyway.

I downloaded and installed prior to posting......didn't see any of that. Just double checked and yes there are some ads right at the very bottom of the interface. I must admit I hadn't even noticed them. So, for me anyway, they are not intrusive at all. Certainly nothing like the pop-ups associated with many freeware products, there is no 'nagging' and any interaction has to be instigated by the user...one always has the choice to simply ignore the ads.

This is not so....zero information is required. Registering (activating) the software is a simple matter of just inserting the license key number.

I tried Keepass many moons ago, couldn't work it out....maybe I am just too dense.

Anyway, cottoned onto this one straight away, found it very easy to use and works well. For me it's a keeper.

To each his own.

Yup, the install didn't seem to require registering in spite of what the EULA said. Maybe that's because of the Softwareload origin of the giveaway. The ads are not intrusive, sorry I didn't make my objection more clear. I don't mind discreet ads for other products created by an author in the splash on on a GUI. My problem with this Softwareload version of PD 4 is the ads are for different products available through their website. I think I noticed the offerings changed with with each opening, which suggests a "phone home" aspect, but I could easily be mistaken.

This is undoubtedly a great solution for many users, but I'm comfortable with what I've been using. Thanks for the opportunity to try PD out.
