In otherwords you lose the key and you lose the data to your LastPass database. The encryption key never leaves your computer, is never stored at LastPass. LastPass cannot even decrypt it themselves.
Your passwords never leave your computer unencrypted when sent to LastPass. If LastPass is breached, the only thing the attacker will get is AES-256 encrypted blobs of data. So, if there is a way to continue using Roboform V6 (and benefit from the improvements of the latest version of Firefox) without paying this company another penny, I’m in favor of spreading the word.Īs for dumping Roboform altogether, I’ve seen reports in early May of security breaches for LastPass Password Manager, which stores the info remotely (“in the cloud”), so I prefer to keep my passwords encrypted AND stored locally, as I believe is the case for Roboform V6.
#Firefox and roboform upgrade
They may have a point, but the way Siber Systems went about marketing the upgrade to previous license holders was deceptive at least. I have read some posts that side with Siber System’s decision to end support of Roboform V6 for Firefox V4 and later, arguing that they should not be compelled to honor “lifetime” licenses for all future releases of the browser. Like many forum members, I too was surprised and disappointed when I discovered what appeared to be a free upgrade to the latest Roboform for paid users of V6 turned out to be 30 day TRIALWARE. I’ve followed your instructions, and It works even for the newest Firefox (V5). Thanks mudsharky (see post May 09) for your tip on getting Roboform V6.10 to work with the latest version of Firefox.
