Password Generation

So we have all been at the point where we are registered on seemingly millions of sites, and instead of using strong passwords like we should, we get lazy and don’t. Yeah, you know what I’m talking about.

I use a Greasemonkey script (found here) called Password Composer (you can read all about it on that link). Now, this script is an absolute godsend really. But there are some shortcomings..sortof. Not with the script itself, but more with the convenience and implementation. For example, I use my mac regularly, so its totally cool to be running Greasemonkey and my custom hacks. But what about the times I need to quickly check my mail on a random work computer? or the library? or any public computer??

I pop open Firefox and go to login to my email… Then I remember that my email is conveniently locked down by an MD5 encrypted master password to keep me idiots out.

I setup a web based form for these dire times. Check it out here.

You can get the offline version here.
