A mysterious new application
Password Safe allows you to safely and easily create a secured and encrypted user name/password list. With Password Safe all you have to do is create and remember a single "Master Password" of your choice in order to unlock and access your entire user name/password list. Edit

Excellent program to manage your login credentials. You can create folders to organize by category (e.g. Credit Cards, Shopping, Forums), can search (!) all your entries (if you forgot in what folder you put, say, wakoopa), takes you to the login screen and can perform auto-type (types username & password for you automatically). Very nice, files are encrypted, this is your chance to use different, high-strength passwords on each and every site! Free!
Downsides: windows-only (there's a "related project" Java version), U3 version costs money (but, at only 10 bucks, a good investment nonetheless).
Fantastic free program. Online solutions seem sluggish to me - only wish would be a way to sync up installations on multiple computers.
I used to use the same password on every website I visited. I felt that was pretty unsafe so I installed Password Safe & now have many different passwords. There's also a version of Password Safe for Linux too because I've got it installed in Mandriva Linux.
I hacked this goodie as a remote access application launcher (start putty, vncviewer, winscp, teamviewer with proper user name and password).
For password, I still like KeePass more.
A good tool, but the online password manager is better, like http://passpack.com also works offline
A very good tool to save passwords in a secure way. It sits in my tray so I have those less frequently used passwords at hand at all times. No more Excell sheets ;)
I've used KeePass and Password Safe, and after a few weeks of each, I liked Password Safe better. Although the UI isn't quite as "fresh" as KP, I like the functionality, plus it's more portable (no .NET needed).
PasswordSafe is an easy program to use and I actually believe it is secure. The one caveat is that if you use it, you must make regular backups and keep them on a separate device (preferably in a separate place). I use ElephantDrive (http://www.elephantdrive.com) in tandem with PasswordSafe and the combination has been effective.
Disclaimer: I work at ElephantDrive.
Not as good as Keepass
Password Safe is an excellent secure storage spot for passwords. I use it in case I forget a password and as a central location for my passwords in case anything ever happens to me. One feature I think could use more work is the copy/pasting of passwords from Password Safe into web browsers. But other than that it is well built and powerful.
