I do this too, however this file is now quite enormous in and of itself. I keep software registrations AND backups of my site passwords in this file, and keep an updated copy on a USB 'dongle' which is also encrypted (Lexar Jump Drive). Unfortunately the dongle has on occasion failed. I am looking at using RoboForm's new portable product which resides on a USB dongle and keeps all passwords in a safe and encrypted, password protected format. Of course this involves purchase of a new license key.......bother! -- Warmest tropical wishes, Spike Quote for the instant: "Americans generally do the right thing, after first exhausting all the available alternatives." - Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign - Against HTML Mail \ / If it aint a webpage it shouldn't be HTML.
