There has been various utilities that allow people to synchronize all of their passwords. These were generally designed for people who have lots of applications that required their own form of authentication.
When you save a password in Internet Explorer in your password list, it keeps that information in an encrypted form in the Windows registry. I have no idea how this utility works. Since it is WE friendly then it might resolve a concern. The problem with having too many log in IDs and passwords is that eventually some people cannot keep track of them all. then they have to write things down which raises other issues with respect to security.

Assuming that the program doesn't create any security issues, it sounds like it could be nice to have as a tool. I'm sure you take on some degree of risk in trusting such confidential information to be stored in a program wherever and however it stores it, but I have not read about it and there may be relatively no reason for concern or the small degree of risk may be worth the trade off. That would be a personal decision though and I think the choice should be made after understanding all the facts, not assumed before knowing the facts.
