Password manager & Opera

whats a good password manager that plays nice with opera?

 

Not exactly sure what you're looking for. Personally, I've found Opera's Wand feature to be quite handy and sufficient for my use. In any case here are some options:

Opera Widgets

Random Password Generator
SecurePassword
Password Manager

Or maybe you're looking for something more along the lines of KeePass Password Safe.

I haven't tried any of these so I don't know how well they work.

 

Why use a password manager when Opera has one already built in? Just use Opera's Wand - it works beautifully!!!

 

I too use Opera's Wand feature extensively. I love being able to log in with a simple mouse gesture. I have the same gesture programmed in Firefox but it's much slower than Opera.

My issue with the Wand feature (and I know others disagree) is that there's no way to see what the password for a particular site actually is. And in some cases the logon ID doesn't display either.

In my job I visit numerous U.S. Government secure websites almost daily. Many have their own particular requirements for logon ID and/or password construction, and some must be complicated and many characters long. Plus, the passwords all need to be changed every 90 days or so. When a site tells me it's time to change my password, the first thing it asks for is, of course, the current one. So I have to write them all down. Kind've defeats the purpose.
