The thing that stinks is that there are so many website that requier a name and a password. They recommend that your password not be the same. Ack! So how am I suppose to keep track of all of this? I am always forgetting my password and having to reset all the time.
I forget my passwords at work weekly.
I've forgotten mine for my banking website and had to call and go through a ton of stuff to get it changed. It was such a hassle. Thank you!!

I need the help with passwords
Forgetting passwords can be really annoying. I presently use Roboform and try to periodically back up my passes, but this setup from Norton seems to be pretty useful also. Great giveaway.

I always try to change my passwords on the same day to the same thing. I have what seems to be about fifty of them to change between home and work – well, one of them I didn't change, and I got locked out of my computer at work – I had to call my IT department, which referred me to Washington, DC where our headquarters is becuase they thought someone was trying to hack my computer at work! YIKES!
I've had some trouble in the past with trying to remember passwords to websites that I had signed up to, unless I had wrote them down right away or made it something easy to remember if I visited them on a regular basis. This prize should come in very handy so I don't have to worry about remembering passwords ever again.

I lost/forgot my password to an online payment account. I had to jump through numerous hoops and wait for days before I could use the account again. That is just ONE time that I forgot a password.

I often forget my passwords as I've often heard it's bad to have the same password for everything, so this sounds like it would work wonder's and I can feel secure about keeping up with passwords.
I have lost too many passwords to count!!!

Thanks again.
My kids schools have a site for parents where you sign on and get your kids update reports, grading and report cards. Recently, I lost the password to our account and the school had to help me reset our password.
Thanks so much.

I'm just happy that I'm not alone….in not remembering and have to reset my passwords every month. I think I have at least 50 different accounts that require passwords and some that I don't log-in often enough, I just have to re-set the passwords every single time. Quite frustrating when you are in a rush trying to get things done. This sounds like the perfect product for me.

I always forget my passwords…It really sucks when I write them down and then I accidently shred those papers.
I always forget my password for many accounts online so I am constantly requesting a reset on them. Sometimes I forget my log in name too because there are so many of those too…
I'm having password problems right now. I don't know why, but mine stopped working on Twitter. I reset it.. and forgot. When I cleared my cache, I had to reset again. ugh
My recent post Skin79 Hot Pink Super Plus Beblesh Balm
I'm lazy when it comes to passwords as I have a handful that I always keep in rotation. However, at work (the only place that won't let me keep using the same password), I have become close friends with the IT lady because I am locked out of a system at least once a week! Not cool.
My recent post Under the Sink
There's nothing worse than entering your password wrong on a major account and being told you've tried too many times to log in, and so the account is locked. So frustrating!
My recent post Peach Vanilla Bourbon Jam, Dilly Beans
It would probably be easier to tell you how many times I DIDN'T forget my password for something. I usually use a similar one for most things, but the rules of each place make it difficult to remember. Capital letter? Number? Character? Six digits? Eight? It makes me crazy.

I've locked myself out of the Edison site many times, I end up having to call them to re-set my password. I hate reusing passwords but it's a pain to remember a bunch of different ones. Identity Safe sounds wonderful!!

We have a FSA through my husband's work. They require us to change the password every so often, So I can't use my standby ones. So I will get an email to verify a claim every once in a while and get frustrated because i have to remember the PW and if I can't in 3 tries it locks me out til later. If I use the lost pw link then i have to wait for the email to reset and then come up with another pw to remember. I have gotten better and keep it in a little notebook, but sometimes that walks away with someone and have to look for that.

My recent post Glazed Doughnut Ice Cream
I am married to a computer guy, so I have lots of secure passwords that I am always forgetting. I have a notebook in my office at home with all my secret stuff in it, but it doesn't help me very much when I am working at my husband's office or at the library working when my youngest wants to hang out at the library! I need something to help me stay organized and secure!!

Well, I haven't had any terrible experiences forgetting a password- but I have had trouble with security questions that only my husband knows the answers to!

What really throws me off is when they have the asinine rules like must start with a capital letter, a number or need a random something or another mixed in-between. There are so many times I sit there and plug in my usual ones and come up short. Click the reset password and and see the rules and go "how in the world can I remember that?"
My college made you change your password every 90 days and you couldn't repeat the same password in the last 180, I was always forgetting what it was. Ended up having to just relate them to the season or common class type.
I will have to give that Norton product a bit of a chance, but most of the Norton products I have used caused some massive problems for my computers, but this has been many years back.
A few months ago I lost my notebook with all my passwords written in it. So now I have to have passwords emailed because I can't look them up in my book.
I JUST had to ask for another password reminder THIS MORNING before I popped over here…..UGH!!! My "cheat sheet" gets lost and then….and then….I try and try but they let you do that only so many times! Yep, I need a helper!
