[QUOTE="BBQ MacSteak, post: 1324666, member: 119133"] Thanks for your replies. 1Password sounds like a great program but will it work on my OS X 10.2.8? And keychain stores passwords but will it work with my Firefox 2.0.0.20? I'm not sure if keychain is supposed to fill in my stored passwords in the blank fields on sites that I visit but my test didn't work in Firefox. The FF add on for keychain functionality doesn't seem to be available for my version. Given the limitations of my old system, and not being in a position to upgrade yet, I'm trying to use whatever I have already ie. Firefox remembering my passwords or typing in passwords as I go. Are there any risks from remote threats? eg. Firefox password cracking or keystroke logging, or would someone need physical access to my Mac to steal this info? [/QUOTE]
