How about if PH used none secure http:// instead of https//? Would that make the choice of password different? Probably not, but it may cause you to question your use of a site. Up until around 2 years ago it was the case with PHs. It was also the reason for the overhaul of the mobile site. Passwords are as safe as the site you use them on. PH used to transmit your confidential data as text.

But surely using a salt properly (i.e. of sufficient length and never re-used) precludes the ability to use a dictionary attack, your rainbow table is ineffectual as its a set of pre-computed values. So for every n bytes of salt, the rainbow table has to be 2^n ?

Keeper isn't all that widely mentioned and used in my experience.

Did you install it because it was in the Windows 10 app store by any chance?

It was actually because I was trying to remember Keepass and ended up there instead somehow so installed that, however it was a trial only so I've binned it off now!
