Hasn't been updated since 2007. This may explain some of your issues. Just tried Password Gorilla (on the mac) and it looks nice, and reasonably stable. -- hasn't been updated since 2006 though. I'll be using Password Gorilla. I’ve tried the SWT version of password safe before, and it isn’t compatible with the latest windows version. Hasn’t been updated since 2007.

The PasswordSafe SWT seems to have problems with 2/3 of the safe's I tried to open that were created with the Windows version.

If I was a bad guy, I'd be loving the current exhibitionist trend on FaceBook and other sites, of the "25 things about me" which are FULL of secret question answers. In fact, you could phish someone pretty easy with one of those... 1. Guess one of your "friends" bank. 2. Write down the questions you have to choose from when creating an account. 3. Insert into the "25 things .." list. 4. PROFIT!!! It’s worse than that.

I have tried all the answers I can think of but I have been locked out several times.

The import and export did not work as suggested between keepass and passwordsafe. But other than that on windows its the best and saved me a lot of heartattacks. Now I also own a Mac and was pleasantly surprised to see the same program PasswordSafeSWT. Trying this out but at least I have some hope on the mac. Venkat Team,

Neither do I think that everyone should understand everything being said -- what's the point of that? But when giving a presentation, I should at least make an effort to define or explain things that might not be universally understood. I've been dinged on this before. That's all. It's what handouts are for, when I remember to use them. Give him time to email you back. The man's busy. I don’t think you intend any criticism.
