KeePass Password Safe Portable

your passwords, secured to go

KeePass Portable is the popular KeePass Password Safe packaged as a portable app, so you can securely carry your email, internet and other passwords with you. You can place it on your USB flash drive, iPod, portable hard drive or a CD and use it on any computer, without leaving any personal information behind.

• KeePass supports the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES, Rijndael) and the Twofishalgorithm to encrypt its password databases.Both of these ciphers are regarded as being very secure.AES e.g. became effective as a U.S. Federal government standardand is approved by the National Security Agency (NSA)for top secret information.
• The complete database is encrypted, not only the password fields. So, your user names,notes, etc. are encrypted, too.
• SHA-256 is used as password hash. SHA-256 is a 256-bit cryptographically secure one-way hashfunction. Your master password is hashed using this algorithm and its output is used as key forthe encryption algorithms.
• In contrast to many other hashing algorithms, no attacks are known yet against SHA-256.
• Protection against dictionary and guessing attacks: by transformingthe final master key very often, dictionary and guessing attacks can be madeharder.
• In-Memory Passwords Protection: Your passwords are encrypted while KeePassis running, so even when the operating system caches the KeePassprocess to disk, this wouldn't reveal your passwords anyway.
• [2.x] Protected In-Memory Streams: When loading the inner XML format,passwords are encrypted using a session key.
• Security-Enhanced Password Edit Controls: KeePass is the first passwordmanager that features security-enhanced password editcontrols. None of the available password edit control spies work against these controls.The passwords entered in those controls aren't even visible in the process memory of KeePass.
• The master key dialog can be shown on a secure desktop, on which almost nokeylogger works. Auto-Type can be protected against keyloggers, too.

Spybot - Search & Destroy Portable

spyware detection and removal

Spybot - Search & Destroy® detects and removes tens of thousands of spyware and similar malware from PCs. It can also clean usage tracks and fix registry issues. Spybot is freeware for personal use. Many cleaning and immunization features require admin rights, which will be requested on launch.

Features

Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging.
To see a list of threats Spybot-S&D can remove, in the navigation bar at the left click on Support --> Threats. For an introduction to Spybot-S&D, please read the tutorial. If you fear incompatibility with other software you are now using, although we can assure you that there is no danger you can review our compatibility overview which lists some software whose compatibility has been analyzed.
Spybot-S&D can also clean usage tracks, an interesting function if you share your computer with other users and don't want them to see what you have been working on. And for professional users, Spybot-S&D allows you to fix some registry inconsistencies and extended reports.
