July monthly poll - How do you keep track of your passwords?

[FrankGC]

I put the password on 3 X 5 index card along with the subject name.
I file these in a Alphabetic  tabbed card box by subject.
Those that I use often are copied to a sheet of paper made readily available

I only have about 14 passwords I recycle...5 of them much more frequently than the others.
Of these 14, only 2 of them are of any noticeable length, and those 2 don't differ by much.
So keeping them all in my head isn't too difficult...the only problem comes when I try to access an account I have not used very many times.

I find that old wep keys are rather useful to tack onto passwords in a pinch.

HI GUYS!    Listen, try "KeyPass" for storing all your passwords and also your 'gizmo' keys and serial numbers as well.     It is a real great little program this is!      

OK, If you have a lot of passwords it will take a little time to properly set up, but once you have caught up, it is simple to keep on top of!   

I wouldn't be without id fellas!

Well with the end of the month it looks like the majority of those who voted chose the option that they always use the same password. As I'm sure most realize using the same password is definitely a security risk, if you voted for this option at the very least I'd recommend considering using at least two passwords. One for sites you're not that concerned about and a more secure password for sites like your banking and e-mail.

The August monthly poll has been posted. Feel free to put in your vote about what type of mouse you use with your computer.

What do you mean?  You don't use any sites that require a password?  Or, you memorize all passwords?  Memorizing may be feasible for a small number of passwords but, for those of us who use many websites and/or computer applications which require a password, memorization simply is not a feasible option unless you use the same password for everything, and that's a very bad way to do it.
