I'm Back

Hi Donald,

Welcome back! I have my passwords written down and taped to the computer, but that probably wouldn't be too safe if you have other people in the house. (I trust the dog.)

I do that too Christine. Just as well I am not having an online affair (sorry Jabber), as hubby would be able to read everything I wrote.

Hi Lexie,

Awww, you're gonna break Jabber's little ol' heart!

Speaking of passwords, I maintain a spreadsheet of site addresses, sign-ons, passwords, pins, security questions/answers, etc. Works a lot better than my memory! If one does this though, REMEMBER TO PRINT IT OUT! It's no help to have all that data stored in a computer file when your computer dies!

I must say, for password management, I REALLY like Thunderbird and Firefox.

Thunderbird (similar but waaay better than outlook) has a password management section in which it display all your email ID's and passwords (you can chose to hide them if you have shonky roommates) and a built in LEARNING spam filter.

Firefox is Mozilla's browser and is sooo light. You can have a gazillion *tabs* open, rather than pages. Internet Explorer is a P.O.S after the recent updates they have done, nothing but trouble. Firefox will also manage your passwords , without giving away vital information.
