    We are told: don't write down passwords; don't reuse passwords; make passwords long and complex.  Chris Taylor, President of the Ottawa PC Users' Group will show how to use free software that stores all your usernames and passwords along with related information and protects them with a single, very strong password.  Don't let your online accounts get compromised. It's easy and free.
