I personally use keepass and keepassx (the alpha compatible with keepass2.x) and sync my passwords with SpiderOak. That's worked pretty well for me, and I don't actually have to trust a website with my passwords. Even if there's an insecurity in SpiderOak, they'd only get my encrypted keepass database which they'd then have to also decrypt.

I definitely recommend keepass over lastpass.

Exactly what I do too, for exact same reasons. Crazy imho to store your passwords in a cloud service, using only their encryption.

A bit OT, but I'm guessing you're using keepassx for non-Windows OS? Is there a benefit to it compared to simply using keepass with Mono?
