1Passwd: like Roboform for Mac, 34% off but not for long
Although I should be using a password manager application, I just never got around to it. I know many folks swear by Roboform, so when I heard that 1Passwd for Mac OS X is similar, I started digging around. I’d say my timing was spot on because the $29.95 application is on sale for $19.67 but only for another 23 hours and change from the time I write this.
The application has a Roboform import function, so if you’ve used Roboform in Windows, you can still use your data on the Mac with 1Passwd. It’s too late for me to try the application tonight, so before you purchase it, I recommend watching the six minute, 25 second introductory video. If you don’t like the app, there is a 30-day money back guarantee and if you do like the app, you’ll be happy to know that you’ll get a free upgrade when Leopard hits the shelves this fall.

I wanted to take the opportunity to support ROBOFORM, or using a Password Manager. I too “swear” by it. I have been using ROBOFORM for at least 3-4 years and have just brought my DATA file with me from computer to computer. I todays age of blogs, forums, websites, bank accts etc etc, you just really need to have something.
ROBOFORM has performed perfectly for me, give it a try.

Thanks for the post! I think you’ll like 1Passwd once you have a chance to put it through its paces. I definitely think everyone needs a password manager. I sleep much sounder at night knowing my online passwords are strong ones, and no longer worry about being the victim of a Phishing Scam.
The 34% sale was for Carl’s Birthday which was on the 26th, but we left it open an extra day by popular demand.
Cheers!

I have been using Roboform for a year now. I love the program, and don’t know what I would do without it. I would recommend it. I made a quick video about the program and posted it on squidoo
