I see I am not the only one with the Roboform problem.

I am looking into Keepass. This is a free/open password manager, however it seems to lack the other form filling features of Roboform.

So much for Roboform's promised "lifetime upgrades" policy (no longer mentioned).

Just paid $9.95 to upgrade Roboform from version 6 to 7. Version 7 works fine.

I was disappointed as well in having to pay to upgrade Roboform so that it would be compatible with Firefox 4. However, realistically, it doesn't seem fair to expect a program to work in perpetuity with every new browser version that comes out. I use Roboform so often that was worth it to pay for the upgrade. I briefly thought about regressing to Firefox 3.x so as to avoid having to update Roboform, but the speed advantage of Firefox 4.0 is so compelling, I kiboshed that idea in a hurry.

I am running Windows XP on a pretty old system--circa 2004, and was toying with the idea of buying a new computer. But the Firefox 4 upgrade has made my old machine fast enough that I am going to stay with it for a few years more. So, paying 20 bucks to upgrade Roboform saved me from paying many times that for a new computer.

Roboform works for me when I changed its options to show up on my right-click menu and run it from there.

Then right-click on the FF3 toolbar and unchecked the RoboForm Toolbar.

You can also run it from the system tray.

For right-click menu open RoboForm Options, select Context menu and check the box for each command you want on the Context Menu.

For System Tray select Options/General and check "Show RoboForm Icon in Tray"
