Account and Password study

[Morac]

I use Roboform so there's no passwords stored in Firefox's Password
Manager, but I don't manually enter any passwords.

[jinghua zhang]

Thanks for letting us know. We will consider it in the data. 

Do you know if there are other tools for people to manage accounts and passwords besides Roboform?

I use the Weave application. I know that it doesn't actually take the
passwords out of Password Manager, but it's something to consider.

Yes, LastPass works much in the same way - it's an add-on that stores
passwords, ideally randomly generated, one per site, and other data
and stores it both locally and encrypted on their server so you can
access your login information anywhere, via another Firefox/LastPass-
enabled PC or via their web interface.

there is add-ons to manage passwords

[john]

I have lots of passwords stored in password mgr. Occasionally I need
to store a site/password that isn't stored automatically. Would be a
nice feature to let me ADD entries.
cheers

I use KeePass Password manager, so while my Firefox Password Manager
still contains some "stale" passwords, I don't necessarily use them
anymore.

[Jared G]

I use KeePass on a USB drive (or backup on my laptop if I'm too lazy
to plug in my USB drive) for everything. It stores user names,
passwords, URLs, notes, etc. Probably not the right forum for a
suggestion, but thought I'd type it out anyway, while I'm thinking
about it...

Would be cool to plug in my USB drive and have Firefox ask me if I'd
like to open the KeePass db the next time I navigate to a page for
which I have a stored password. In this scenario, Firefox would
detect a KeePass db file in a number of user-specified locations (d:/
keepass, c:/usb_key_backup/keepass, etc.) sorted, by the user, in
order of priority. It could save my preferences so it automatically
uses my USB key version every time I plug it in, but falls back to the
backup on my HDD. In any case, if I'm already at such a page, or
navigate to it, Firefox could prompt for my KeePass master password
and fill in the user/pass fields. Ideally, Firefox would cache the
URLs present in the KeePass db and create a bookmark folder and/or
icon. The categories built into KeePass can be mirrored as bookmark
folders. If possible, a search box at the top of the drop-down "menu"
would filter just like it does in KeePass. Clicking on the bookmark,
of course, takes me to the page and then prompts for my KeePass master
password. The life of the KeePass master password would be user-
specified (one-time, timeout, screen lock, indefinite, etc.) or until
the KeePass db changes (e.g., plugging in my USB drive after having
used the backup.)

I use LastPass, too, and I believe that fact might be skewing the data
in the Mozilla Labs survey. I have been looking at my data so far, and
it tells me that I am using my most common password on 93 sites - that
is definitely not true, as I create new, unique passwords for each
site (and I also don't think I have far more than 150 site logins, as
the data says).

There are also some options missing in the survey when it comes to
remembering login information. I don't even try to remember my
passwords, seeing as they are all unique and very random, but they are
saved in LastPass instead. There isn't really an option that covers
this.

[postman99]

Strongly agree with this idea for using Keepass !!

Jared, etc, how about trying the new beta of KeeFox 0.7 at http://keefox.org/?

I really doubt Firefox will ever have direct KeePass integration built-
in, but KeeFox seems a reasonable substitute.

Hi,

I'm the main developer of KeeFox. Some of Jared's suggestions are
already part of KeeFox, others are on my TODO list and some are
interesting suggestions that I would like to give some further
attention. If anyone wants to bring these or any other suggestions
onto the KeeFox forum (http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/keefox/
viewforum.php?f=1) then I'll be happy to discuss them there (although
I might not be online very much over the next two weeks).

When I first started working on KeeFox I tried to mash it into the
Firefox master password system but the end result would have been
heavily compromised and confusing for the end user so KeeFox now
completely replaces the functionality of the built-in password
manager. If anyone is interested in talking about the password
management aspect of Firefox with me in more detail then I'd be happy
to contribute to an appropriate discussion if you point me to it.

For what its worth, I didn't know anything about this survey (or
testpilot) until I found this thread through a "KeeFox" google search
but I would add my vote to the "inspecting my stored Firefox passwords
won't tell you anything about my password management strategy" option
(I used RoboForm for the past few years and now KeeFox).

Thanks,
Chris
