Hi, i would like to protect files like passwords and websites of Firefox (iceweasel), and this cannot be done encripting the files.
So, i need some program for protect the files and, at the same time be using them. If i encript the files, i cannot use them at the same time. And if I cannot use them at the same time, it's meaningless.
Somebody could help me? Thank you very much, I appreciatte your help.
What's wrong with the built-in password encryption in Firefox? Look under Preferences->Security->Use a Master Password. You can even use a secure access card if you know how to set it up.
There are also external (to Firefox) password-storing apps, or even strategies like storing password files on pendrives. I store important ones on a PDA (encrypted of course :-) This trades security for convenience, since you have to type them in.
You need to state more clearly what you're trying to protect against.
