Title: how safe are password kept by google browser
Post by: J4e8a16n on November 15, 2012, 09:19:08 PM
Hi,

How secure is Chrome for keeping password in the safe zone?

It would be nice to be able to use a Notepad or EditPlus in the safe zone.

How can I reach my references when I am in the safe zone?
Now, I am using the clip board to paste some information in the browser... A bit primitive way to go.
Thanks for your attention,

JP

Actually it's that the browser running in SafeZone that needs to be kept safe which is why you can't use add-ons to that browser.
