How many passwords and logins do you have?

Here’s an interesting article from my local paper The Baltimore Sun about internet
passwords and remembering them:

How many passwords do you have? I try to stick to three that I use for personal
use, but for work I think there is about another 5.

The article mentions using software to remember your passwords for you. Personally,
I rely on my brain- I don’t trust the software for this stuff. Not sure why
I don’t trust it, but I don’t. If you are interested in password software visit a site like Macupdate.com and search for the word passwords. You’ll get a list of programs to try. Some are free, some aren’t. I’ve never tried any of them, so I can’t give you any help here.

The only sites I run into trouble with passwords
are banks. Banks don’t let you use a normal password. Instead, you have to have
some password you can never remember (at least I can’t). I’ve had to call my
bank several times to reset my online account because I was locked out due to
typing the wrong password one to many times.
