[QUOTE="zidong, post: 1112235, member: 115014"] If pc is infected/compromised and you don't know about it, [B]how 3rd party password manager would help[/B]? At the moment you unlock it to login in site A, B or C, all saved passwords are compromised + cookie stealers? If you know that your pc is infected then first thing to do is to change all important passwords and do clean install. In both cases I don't see much benefit from 3rd party password managers. Important passwords - 7zip encrypted .txt file saved on offline flash drive. Not important 200+ passwords are saved in browser password manager. When I do clean install I just export passwords and bookmarks offline and save them on flash drive. [/QUOTE]
