If you often use multiple computers for accessing various password-protected things (maybe as a system admin or just the occasional need of accessing something on another computer), then you could use a password manager that runs off of the flash drive and Dropbox portable to keep it synced with new passwords and password changes.

I have Keepass and Dropbox on my flash drive just in case I ever need to access something when using someone else's computer, without having to worry about keeping my password database up to date. Much easier than downloading Keepass on a computer that isn't mine--rude at best, not possible due to permissions at worst--and then downloading the database from the web access and cleaning up when I'm done.

It's helped me once or twice; not often, but the relatively small files on a multi-gig drive is worth it.

KeePass in the office is exactly what I'll be doing with the thumb drive version! In my office, the IT staff actually runs scans of your system and goes through reports of what's installed. So to me, this is exactly what I needed.
