18 Which is why Lastpass needs to let someone outside see their code, sort
19 of earn the peoples trust. Even tho Seamonkey 2 has a few issues right
20 now, I still trust it. I am not worried that they are logging my
21 keystrokes or anything like that. Lastpass, as some have pointed out,
22 could be doing just that. We don't *really* know what they are doing
23 other than what they claim.

25 I like the idea behind it but lack the trust, sort of like Alan I
26 guess. I wanted to use it but was not sure it was safe hence the thread
27 about it.
