The passwords are hidden in Frefox and when you wish to see them, you have to unhide them. It is also a good time to delete the passwords that are no longer used when they were changed to a new one. Unless you are using the master password feature anyone can access the passwords in Firefox using the Tools method. AS a backup I went to the dollar store and purchased a small booklet for 99 cents and write all my passwords there. I deliberately had a floppy disc drive installed on my computer and store a backup of passwords on a floppy. The same can be done on a rewriteable CD or DVD ... I use the same password for everything. Is that bad? |

Just last week I received an email from Care2 that their system had been hacked and names and passwords were compromised so I quickly changed mine for banking. Better to be safe than sorry. Some sites rate the strength of a password when you join, and mine was always very high. Hope the new one is as well. Take care, Pat |

If you are concerned about keystroke-loggers you can keep a list of your passwords 9in a document that is not titled Passwords!) and use copy and paste to enter on a protected site. |
