Trephin: Thanks very much on the website input. Let's see what tanstaafly comes up with and we'll combine your ideas. But you're right -- the home page should be short and sweet.
Tyrantmizar: if you don't know HTML, then Excel is fine. If you do know HTML, then just place it in a <table/> tag. That would save us a little work. btw, quixin works on the website, too, it's not just me and romeo.
I think one more feature request to compare is: do they support multiple accounts? I've noticed a number of these "hasher" programs that can produce only one password per URL!
Other programs to add to the comparison list: KeyPass--a lot of people tend to mention this--RoboForm (there's a FF plugin I tried a few weeks back).
edit:what hash does Firefox use to protect your passwords?
Like KeyPass and RoboForm, FF doesn't hash passwords. It uses two-way (symmetric)
encryption. That's why you are able to choose any passwords you like with these products (Hashing is not encryption). Take a look at
this and
this. The documents are dated, but the underlying technology is still the same. An important point to note is all these products
store the master password on your hard drive (including FF Password Manager). FWIW, I think FF uses AES encryption but I don't know which bit length--128 or 256. Let me know if you'd like me to ask around to find out.
