LastPass is an online password manager and form filler that promises that it will be the last password you would ever need to remember. It’s definitely not the first software of its kind. Roboform has been the king of all such softwares for a long time. Does LastPass pack enough punch to defeat Roboform? Let’s take a look.



LastPass is a newage solution that realises the importance of data portability. Accordingly all the password and profiles are encrypted and stored offline as well as online. This ensures wherever you go, all your data is always available to you. For more information on the encryption and storage technology check out this page.

Immediately after installation LastPass asks you to create an online account and imports existing data from Internet Explorer, Firefox, RoboForm, 1Password, KeePass, MyPasswordSafe, Password Safe, Sxipper, and PassPack. LastPass integrates itself seamlessly with Internet Explorer and Firefox via plugins. Additionally it provides 3 bookmarklets to extend the LastPass experience to all the other browsers and mobile devices. Opera, Google Chrome, Safari, iPhone and even Opera Mini is supported through bookmarklets. Opera fans have been craving for a AIRoboform plugin or something similar to implement auto-form filling for a long time. LastPass finally allows Opera users to enjoy auto forum-completion in Roboform style. LastPass also has a mobile optimised page for accessing data from mobile phones.

There are no two opinions on the fact that Gmail’s popularity as a web based email client continues to soar everyday and its already most popular among geeks and tech savvy crowd.

The popularity of Gmail is primarily due to its excellent features which help the user accomplish a lot of things within his email. And if you are using Firefox as your browser, then with the help of some add ons, you can turn it into the ultimate power house.

Although there are many add ons crafted to work with Gmail, we decided to list the most useful and the most popular among them.

1: Better Gmail 2

This is one of the most useful firefox add ons for gmail. It is a combination of some useful greasemonkey scripts and adds features like new Gmail skins, one click conversations, google reader integration, folders for Gmail etc. If you are using the older Gmail version then you should install Better Gmail , which is the older version of this add on.

2: GTD Inbox

GTD Inbox is another excellent add on, especially for those who deal with a large number of emails everyday and want to handle gmail in a better and productive manner. This add on aims to clean up your inbox by treating the emails as tasks and assigning them different actions according to your priorities. You can read an elaborate description of this add on here.

3: Dragdropupload

As it says: “Drop files into attachment boxes instead of browse for them or type in the filename. Drop multiple files and fill all the entries. In some websites it allows to add new upload files: in Gmail is possible to drop the files directly over the “Attach a file” link.”

Hence it makes adding attachments to Gmail an easy and time-saving task.

4: Gspace

We know that Gmail offers storage space of almost 6 GB now and not everyone of us can consume it completely just through emails. So why not use this storage space to store your files and other data ? Thats when Gspace comes into picture. It acts as an online drive, so you can upload files from your hard drive and access them from every Internet capable system.

It has a nice interface too and makes your gmail account look like a FTP host. So if you want to use the Gmail storage space effectively then this could be a useful add on for you.

5: Gmail Manager

Gmail Manager is another very useful firefox extension, especially if you have multiple gmail accounts. It displays the new mail notifications in different gmail accounts from the status bar and also displays things like unread messages, saved drafts, new mail snippets etc.

I hope some of the aforementioned extensions help you in further enhancing your productivity with Gmail.

Mozilla's Firefox 3.5.1 browser is now out with fixes for one critical zero-day vulnerability that first became public earlier this week.
The zero-day flaw is a vulnerability in Firefox 3.5's Just-in-Time (JIT) JavaScript compiler. Mozilla's security advisory describes the vulnerability as "an exploitable memory corruption problem."
Security researcher Simon Berry-Byrne publicly posted proof-of-concept exploit code for the flaw on Tuesday, potentially enabling an attacker to execute arbitrary code. Mozilla began testing a patch for the flaw the same day with its nightly builds.
The update is the first security update for Firefox 3.5 which was released at the end of June.
Security isn't the only issue addressed by the update. Mozilla is also tackling a sluggish startup issue for Windows users in Firefox 3.5.1. On the Mozilla bugzilla system, the bug is officially described as "very slow startup for Firefox 3.5 due to accessing IE Internet Temporary Files and Windows Temp folder." According to the bugzilla report, the startup time for Firefox 3.5 was found to be slower than it should have been, and Firefox 3.5.1 has now been patched to resolve the issue.
All together, the Firefox 3.5.1 release patched 22 bugs, 7 of which were tagged by developers as being critical.
Among those critical bugs are a number of non-security-related crash conditions. One of them is a crash was triggered by way of certain types of search requests made by the main browser interface.
Firefox 3.5.1 does not, however, address every issue that researchers have had issues with in Firefox 3.5.
One issue that was alleged by security researcher "^3described4^3r" is that Firefox 3.5 leaks DNS (define) information. The researcher's claim is that Firefox 3.5 incorrectly handles DNS information that shouldn't be exposed when a user is using a proxy (define).
At this point, Mozilla doesn't see a security issue with Firefox 3.5's DNS handling.
"When a user manually configures a proxy and flips the remote_dns pref to route DNS requests through the proxy, we'll do just that -- no local DNS lookups," Mozilla's Johnathan Nightingale told InternetNews.com. "In fact, our users can turn off dns prefetch altogether with a boolean pref called 'network.dns.disablePrefetch,' though we hope few do, since DNS pre-fetch improves the responsiveness of normal Web browsing."
While the zero-day JavaScript flaw is the big news in the Firefox 3.5.1 update, Mozilla had planned for the update prior to the public disclosure of the security issue. Within days of the final Firefox 3.5 release, Mozilla had stated that a Firefox 3.5.1 release would be issued in mid- to late July to fix a number of crash issues and bugs.
