I use this for banking so I can use stronger passwords without a) having to remember them, and b) having to type them in each time. Nothing is stored online and the password file is encrypted.

There's even a portable version at PortableApps.com that lets you put it on a USB drive so you have passwords wherever you need to go.

Edit: And, for clarification, the free versions are 1.x on their web site, while the paid versions are 2.x. Not sure why they went that route as it seems that 1.x is still being developed/supported.
I don't know what you are a going on about, KeePass is free for both versions.

I use KeePass as well, there's versions for many different mobile devices as well, and also there's a Firefox plugin called KeeFox which lets you manage website addresses with KeePass; which is good because it lets you easily have strong passwords and different passwords for every site.
