 Yet another password manager!

Do we really need this? There're so many already. Ive been using SplashID since many years. I suggest that someone compare SplashID, Yaps, Resco ID, Top Secret, My Passwords, Password Pro, aPassword, InfoSafe Plus and more.

That's funny, I was going to post pretty much the identical post but then thought I am just glad anyone is making any software for Palm anymore. I agree though this looks identical to every other password storage program already out there. I do like Resco apps though so would be interested in someone's review of IDGuard.

i don't like proprietary black box applications for my data. i try to stick with word/excel/outlook compatible apps for my data. hence, i like docs to go and use word documents with password for my secure data.

ms word with password encrypts data and is pretty secure.

Gekko - Microsoft's track record in computer security doesn't leave you a tad nervous?

^^ Hehe. Settle, Gretel, I was just curious. You'll like this:

Symantec has attacked the perceived security advantages of Firefox and Apple Macs by drawing unfavourable comparisons with Microsoft's software and describing Mac fans as living in a "false paradise"...
