I've been trying out lastpass for a few weeks. I downloaded the extension that their website directed me to. Because of this discussion, I did a version check and lo and behold, it defaults to NOT auto-update.

Luckily I've been using it only for a few unimportant sites. They've had two security issues disclosed since I started my trial. I'm impressed with the functionality. I'm decidedly unimpressed with the security experience.

I am a heavy LastPass user, but I've stopped using the browser plugins, and just copy and paste into my browser (or look up on my phone and manually type on my laptop/desktop). C&P'ing is also a bit risky as LP seems to lack a clear clipboard option on Android.

I have a month left on my paid subscription. I think I'll be leaving for a competing product shortly.

Have you made a decision, cuz I'm a new LastPass user and to me I find it clunky (not to mention it causes constant mouse flickering at times).

Not yet. I'm thinking of trying 1Password or something KeePassX-based, maybe with Google Drive or Dropbox for the syncing.
