RoboForm2Go
– Store and protect your passwords on a USB drive.

Im a huge fan of the Portable Apps software for USB drive, but if thats more than you need, check out RoboForm2Go. RoboForm2Go is program that installs onto any USB drive and stores all of your passwords and login information for the vast number of websites you visit regularly. Big deal you say? What if I told you it also helped to protect you and your passwords from identity theft?

Appart from just being a convenient way to remember your passwords on public computers, RoboForm2Go also goes the extra mile to help protect you. The first security measure is of course having the program its self password protected. So should you loose your USB drive, you dont have to worry about all your accounts getting hacked.

The next security feature of the RoboForm2Go is the one that really makes it shine. Built into the RoboForm2Go software is a program that detects and prevents key stroke loggers from collecting your login information. Lastly, RoboForm2Go also clears out your browsing history and any cookies once you log off; its like you were never even there.

The quick & dirty:

Where you can get one:
Website: Free – $39.95

Why they rock:

  • Memorizes your passwords and Logs You In automatically.
  • Fills long registration and checkout forms with one click.
  • Encrypts your information with AES – the strongest encryption available.
  • Generates random passwords that hackers cannot guess.
  • Fights Phishing by filling passwords only on matching web sites.
  • Defeats Keyloggers by not using keyboard to type passwords.

Seat-of-the-pants rating: 8 out of 10

All and all I think the product is a good ideal and works fairly well. My only two gripes are this; if the computer blocks executable files, then the program is useless. My other gripe is that it is a tad expensive for what it is. $40 seems like a lot to me when I can pretty much do the same thing with Portable Apps.
