Of course, it needs to be implemented properly. But I didn't want to get into symantics.

O.P. RE: Best encryption algorithm?
What if you forget/lose the access password? I guess then you'll be unable to retrieve your stored logins.

That is the only logical answer.

DES is no longer used main stream because 56bits just doesn't give you enough security. Three key Triple DES gives you a key length of 112 bits which is supposedly sufficient. Two key Triple DES gives you something like an effective key length of 80 bits.

If AES is good enough for the USA's secret files, I'm fine with it storing my encrypted info :P
