   Reviewing 6.9.97 (Nov 19, 2009)

   My review is just a comment. I've reinstalled roboform several times on a flash drive either because it got corrupted, was lost, or accidentally overwritten. Did not like having to purchase a license again when this happened. Now I'm using LastPass and am totally happy with this free product. No more worrying about losing a flash drive or corrupting one.

   @PJB. Sorry I stand corrected. I still don't understand the concept of a user of lastpass having to log on to a remote server to access passwords stored locally. But I'll accept you explanation of the lastpass product's security features. I'll give it a try. But for now, I prefer roboform.

   Not a bad application. However I feel lastpass (http://lastpass.com) is better, and it is free. Using RoboForm can cost a lot $59.85 if you use it on more than one pc and wish to have it on a usb key. (RoboForm licence + RoboForm Second Licence + RoboForm2Go Licence $59.85)
   Why pay when lastpass does it all for free.

   No problems, glad to help. Hope to be constructive in my reviews, and I generally only only review products I use etc. Always good to point alternatives especially if it can save some money.
   I have given RoboForm a go, found it usable, but for me not really cost effective.
   Lastpass does have a good FAQ (https://lastpass.com/faq.php)
   Hope that your testing goes well.

   Hope these give you clarification and answer your concerns.

   1. Data is encrypted on local pc.
   2. An encrypted backup copy of your data is stored in your account at Lastpass.com (FAQ gives secuirty assurances (https://lastpass.com/faq.php#aes) - I would not use them if I had doubt's) (RoboForm also stores your data if you use https://online.roboform.com/)
   3. Access your data anywhere! (Just like RoboForm appear to have copied in doing)
   From what I see RoboForm uses a lot of features that lastpass has, but RoboForm charges you for them,
   4. Backup and read from your USB key! Securely backup your data to a USB key (Thus not just online - infact your data on local machine works if offline)
   5. Should the company cease: https://lastpass.com/faq.php#disappear
   6. Bookmarkletts have been around in lastpass for a while, RoboForm recenty.. https://lastpass.com/faq.php#bookmarklet

   Great software, don't know why I didn't use it for as long as I didn't.
   
   Just to reiterate some previous comments; I only wish it worked with Opera.
