Here's a freeware title called Nyx Password Storage. (http://www.nyxbull.net/products/nps12.php)

CryptoCard works well, too, and syncs to a desktop version.

IMO, having an acompanying desktop version is critical for this kind of utility. It makes cutting and pasting info from a PC session SOOOO much easier!

My solution to your problem:
Buy a small capacity SD card, say 64 to 128 MB or so. (CAUTION: Select a good btrand-name SD , and back the files up via active sync onto your passworded desktop or laptop.) Load all passwords you value onto this SD card. Keep the card handy when using your PPC; otherwise keep it in a "safe" place. When not in use, secure your PPC with a good 4 digit or better password that comes on within 15 minutes after PPC power down. Don't go online with your PPC and the "password SD card" in use at the same time. I keep my passwords in the clear in a Windows Mobile MSWord file, encrypted with a simple substitution cypher.

Passwords on a laptop or desktop can be similarly stored on a USB Storage Device, to be plugged in only when needed.

Helps also if you get a reputation for being a single-minded, revenge-oriented Bad-A--, seriously intent on flushing identity theft cyberhackers
and bringing them to JUSTICE !!!
