The idea is that it is more secure to give every website a different password. If one site has naughty administrators, or gets hacked, the password won't work for your account on another site. But how can one remember a different password for every site? Don't, let the computer make one for you!
You remember one master password. (It is not stored anywhere, don't forget it!) Then, with a (somehwhat simple) cryptographic hash function, the extension combines your master password and the domain name of the site to make another unique password for that site. The password is not saved in Firefox, or anywhere else. It's secure!
There's two other nice features that make logging in even easier. You can configure a username and/or an email address to fill in, at the same time that the password is filled in. For advanced users, if you own your own domain, just put "@example.com" (whatever your domain is) for the address, and MPWGen will make a different email for every site too!
How to use it?
First, after installing, right click on your toolbar and choose "Customize". In the window that comes up, you'll find a new lock icon, labeled Magic Password. Drag that icon onto your toolbar. Optionally you can now configure a username and/or e-mail address to use.
Now, whenever you go to a website asking for a password to log in, simply click the icon and type your master password in the prompt that comes up. That's it!
Another note: There is an option labeled "disable password remembering." This option will disable Firefoxes default password remembering feature, for passwords filled out with this extension. When it is on, you can just tap ENTER twice after filling in your master password; the second tap will almost always submit the form.
At another computer?
If you are at a public/shared computer that doesn't have the extension or perhaps Firefox at all, you can use this bookmarklet to do the same password magic. You can also use the form on the same page as the bookmarklet, to find out what your password for any site is.
Help! I forgot my master password, how do I recover it?
The master password is purposely not stored anywhere. There is no recover. There is no reset. It is in your brain only, and perhaps anywhere else you wrote it down.
How do I change the master password for the Password Manager, I forgot it!
There is a feature in Firefox called the "Password Manager". This feature will store your usernames and passwords, so you don't have to remember them. Optionally, you may give that tool a "master password" which it uses to encrypt the data it saves, so that your passwords are not visible to anyone who happens to sit down at your computer. But, I did not write Firefox, and I am not related to that feature!. Don't forget this password, because you can't get it back. You can reset it, but you will erase all the stored data at the same time. But please, don't send me mail about the Firefox Password Manager. It is in no way related to this extension.
