Never used it before.....something that I should know about LastPass.? ...it seems very easy to use..:D
 
No. Its as easy as that. All your passwords are stored in your secure vault in there site. So even if you uninstall LastPass just log into there site and everything is there.

Ok.Thank you Diesel. :great:
 
with Lasspass you can create very long passwords like I have done with some accounts. Add Ultimate flags or whatever it's called yo chrome
 
I liked LastPass enough to pay for the premium, even though I don't really need any of the premium features (smartphone apps, etc). Got quick support, though. +1

Once they made a new test version of their software for me, when I reported a bug (I think they were going to fix it in a public release later, but I still got a new version early).
 
So today I've installed Windows 7 32bit on my "testing pc" ... main reason . BufferZone Pro
This is my new security setup :

I have finally decided to install Unbutu on my system... So I've used Wubi and now I have Windows 7 and Unbutu 11.04 on this Pc.
Right now I;m trying to find a way to connect to the Internet
On Windows I'm using a PPOE connection......

I need drivers for Unbutu also ?:P

I think you do. try and see if that helps.
 
First try System -> Preferences -> Network Connections -> DSL tab. Add a new connection and fill in username and password. If this doesn't work, Mark's link will be helpful. Also the Romanian Ubuntu Community (link) might be able to help with this problem (some of them probably use the same ISP).

I've just installed CIS ...and I'm very impressed..COMODO manage to really improve their whitelist....I didn't manage to see any alerts from D+ ...
The only alerts that CIS display were from the firewall,basically CIS asked me if I want to allow different programs to connect to the internet ..
+10 Comodo ;)
 
Nice config Jack and yeah, Comodo's products are really good and I've also experienced a lack of alerts for Defense+ recently. You don't use Firefox right now?
