If you're a Mac or Windows user annother alternative is 1Password. While it costs money it also brings browser plugins for most common Browsers to automatically fill the login forms. This way you can disable the browsers password saving function, which is quite insecure too. You can save the keychain file on dropbox f.e. if you need your password chain on different computers (PC, Laptop).
I'm not affiliated with them in any way, just a happy customer.

LastPass is about the same, also providing extensions for all browsers to automatically store & fill username / password fields. It's free.

I've done something similar but if someone finds out i use ogmtv for gomtv he might just try afcebook for facebook etc. doesn't sound safe imo.

that stuff is done with bots, although i guess they could program it that way, i doubt they do a password annalysis

Thankfully I was using a randomly generated password for this, can't believe websites still store things in plaintext though

Thanks for the Keepass link! Just changed all my passwords!

Thanks for the info, changed the PW immediately.
same here. i'm looking for a way to come up with a unique password for every website that i can still remember though. keepass can generate some random pw but if for some reason i lose my data (maybe hdd crash or whatever), i'll not be able to remember my pw. any ideas guys? :/
There is a very usefull print tool on KeePass that allows you to print all your PW database.
Or you could also save them on a Flash Drive like darkness said.

I do like your suggestion, thanks!
Just wanted to know if the other method is safe aswell, since i've already done that and just sticking with it would save me a bit of work.

Just in case I changed my pass but my password for GOMTV.net is something I used in combination with other passwords I have :D
|
There is still no official statement from GOM.... This is fucking ridiculous customer service...
|
|
|
I couldn't change my password on GOM but I reset it. I changed any passwords I had that were the same in case it was compromised already.
If my old password wasn't compromised yet, can it still be now that I've reset it?
This is poor from GOM you'd think with the number of high profile hackings recently that websites would step up security to avoid embarressments.

Just a friendly reminder that if you like what KeePass is doing and are able, donate to them. They are worth every penny.

First the link is from the US battle.net site (I have the same mail and my account is from EU) and there's a reference in the url and the e-mail name as well is quite phony.
It's just some phishing email ignore it :D

That email is not from Blizzard. Don't give them any info! Look at the url: battle-net-logie.net, instead of battle.net.

Dude remove the phishing link. It may be marred with spelling errors, and in a post about hacking, so that only an idiot would actually click on it, but I guarentee you that that idiot reads TL.
edit: and as I post lots of people quote the same link. >.<
