A free on-line program is here:

You have to trust that they won't steal your data. The program has good reviews. It's user-friendly. Of course, this could be a disadvantage. My techie son would not register on-line. Here are two favorable reviews:

Here is a very good screencast video on its benefits:

This way, you keep track of multiple passwords. It is easy to forget which password and which ID is used on which site.

This procedure is simple. Stop trying to remember who you are, site by site. Keep this information on your laptop (encrypted).
