A day at the office can be especially frustrating when you just can't remember the password to the local database right before giving a presentation. Password Retriever will let you store and categorise thousands of passwords to everything from your voice mail to your countless e-mail accounts.

Password Retriever offers an encrypted file format so any user can't just go and peek in at your passwords using SimpleText. RC4 (the type of protection Password Retriever uses) is a very secure 448 bit encryption method used in the industry. Storing your passwords on the computer versus a piece of paper will allow you to keep your mind at ease. Never again worry about where you last put that vital slip of paper.

Password Retriever provides a very sleek interface with some very powerful tools. After the launch of the application you're only a double mouse click away from accessing your stored information.

Limitations:
