Found this great lightweight password manager:

KeePass: http://keepass.info/

All very self-explanatory. A master password locks the database. Plenty of plugins to make life easier for you.

So far I’ve only tryed using the Firefox >> KeyPass importer which in turn requires you to download the KeyPass XML importer. I experienced problems when trying to directly import from Firefox so I downloaded the Password Exporter addon. This exports your Firefox passwords into an XML file which the Firefox >> KeyPass importer can then import.

The next plugin I want to try is KeyPassSync. This will allow me to syncronise my passwords on my home desktop, laptop and work desktop computers. Unfortunately this is only available with version 2 that’s currently in alpha testing. I’d rather wait until the BETA before I trust it with my password database!
