    Good find, I am going to give this a shot. I was on the phone with my bank the other day for almost an hour trying to get my password changed because I forgot it.

    I am sorry, your password must include a capital letter (e.g. A,B,C,Z) a lower case letter (e.g. a, b, c, z), a symbol (e.g. ^,&,*,$), a number (e.g. 4,5,6,9), the name of your little siblings (e.g. Paco, Juan, Geraldo, Mark), a disease (e.g. ebola, HIV), the name of your favorite band (e.g. RHCP, Incubus) and your name spelled backwards with a "3" instead of "e" (e.g. tr3b).

    I thought spelling my name spelled backwards with a "1" was pretty tricky actually :-(

    So who's going to buy them first?

    My money is on Google, but I'm betting Microsoft won't be behind the door...

    haha wow i cant believe you found that! thats pretty cool...i going to have to try this one out, but on the other hand you wouldnt want somebody that you didnt know storing all your passwords for you would you? i mean someone designed this site and they can withdraw from any account that you moght have that password in....just saying.

    Nick,

    They would not be able to extract your data. In fact, if you forget your pack key, they cannot recover your data whatsoever.

    Their encryptions make it so that only you can unencrypt your data using a key that only you know -- they don't store that information.

    It's like making a lock that has only one key and you have the key.

    @Josh
    Thanks for this write up - love it! The phrase "Online Privacy Manager" is a look into the future. PassPack will be slowly expanding beyond just passwords and online *password* manager doesn't leave much room for growth. That make sense?

    @Nick,
    Josh is right, we aren't able to read the data that you choose to store with us. Here's how that works:
