I've been using PassPack for a few years. It allows you to generate random passwords with your choice of # of characters and type. My default setting is 14 chars of a-z, A-Z, 0-9 and punctuation. Then if the site complains I scale back, no punctuation, less chars, etc.

This does mean that 90% of the time I need to go to PassPack before I can login anywhere. Recently I've also wondered if a public key solution could work in a browser. That would be fantastic.

LastPass also contains such a password generator. Even better, it remembers the passwords for you!
