KeePass Password Safe (v2.x) 2.06 Beta beta
Publisher's Description:
KeePass Password Safe is a free/open-source password safe or manager which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key-disk. So you only have to remember one single master password or insert the key-disk to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known (AES and Twofish).
KeePass Password Safe has the following other editions available: KeePass Password Safe (v1.x).
Latest Changes:

Great program, however I agree that no option to use the 1.x database is stupid. Seriously, compared to writing the program how hard could it really be?
So, I too am sticking with 1.14.
I seem to be following a "tried and true" trend which includes rolling back to XP.

Good, but net must go. I honestly don't see any need for need, especially because we all know that author is an amazing coder. So why use net?

@xee: KeePass 1.xx is still in development and doesn't rely on .NET! (Go to the developer's homepage to find it.)

KeePass is an excellent program, but with .NET dependency it becomes useless...
No for .NET dependency for such simple applications.
