[UPDATE]: AI RoboForm 6.0.0 released

Henry The Mole

New Features of Ver 6

Matching Passcards button -- AutoFill Alternative
* AutoFill dialog is annoying, so we are de-emphasizing it in the new
version.
* Added Matching Passcards button to RF toolbar. It shows passcards that
match current web page. Click the button and it fills from the 1st passcard.
Put mouse cursor on the button and it shows list of matching passcards plus
Fill and Fill&Submit buttons.
* Added My Identities buttons to RF toolbar. Your My Identities are shown on
RF toolbar, each as a button. Click the button and forms are filled from the
identity. Put mouse cursor over the button and additional identity form
filling controls are shown. They allow to select instances and have Fill and
Fill&Submit buttons.
* AutoFill dialog is still available. To turn it On, go to "Options ->
General -> Html Forms" and check "Offer to AutoFill".
My Identities vs Contacts
* Identities that you use to fill forms (called My Identities) are separated
from Contacts (Identities of your friends, that is, Address Book).
* We assume that you have two My Identities -- one real identity and one
alter-ego identity.
* Convert Outlook and Windows Address Book contacts to RoboForm Contacts.
Folders
* Passcards, Identities and Safenotes can be categorized into Folders.
* Display folder tree in Editors.
* Save Forms, new Identity, Rename, Clone dialogs allow creation of new
object in a folder.
* All menus that select an object are now cascading, they may contain
folders.
Search Box
Search Box allows you to:
* Type partial name of Passcard, Identity, Safenote and have RoboForm show
you all objects that match. This is autocomplete for passcard and identity
names. ENTER executes the default command on the 1st shown object.
* Type a search word or phrase, click F3 and it is searched in Google or
other search engine.
* Type a word, click F8 and it is looked up in a dictionary.
* Type a word, click F2 and RoboForm goes to www.word.com (same as
CTRL+ENTER in IE).
* Type a word and RoboForm offers a list of possible search actions, ENTER
selects default action.
Toolbar
* Not every browser can have native RoboForm toolbar (IE can, AOL, MSN and
Mozilla cannot), so we introduced Lower Toolbar that attaches to the bottom
of the browser page in browser that are not allowed to have native RoboForm
toolbar. Lower toolbar behaves just like native RoboForm toolbar.
* Lower toolbar has long and short versions. Short versions is used for
windows that are not wide enough for long version.
* Remove Whole Line Toolbar option, now RoboForm figures it out
automatically.
* Add a notion of Default Passcard. This is your favorite passcard for a
domain and it is shown on My Passcards button when you come to this domain.
* Remove Text Below Icons option.
Mozilla Adapter
* Lower Toolbar works in Mozilla/Firefox/Netscape now if RF Adapter is
installed. Since official RoboForm toolbar in Mozilla has limited
functionality due to Mozilla limitations (no pull-down menus), you should
hide the official RoboForm toolbar in Mozilla and use Lower Toolbar.
* Basic Authentication can now be auto-filled and auto-saved, Login works
too.
* Selective form filling has been implemented.
Bookmarks
* Bookmarks now have their own extension RFB and their own icon in Passcard
Editor.
* Add converter of IE Favorites to RoboForm Bookmarks.
Save and AutoSave to Passcard
* Memorize which button was clicked in AutoSave and click the memorized
button if possible in AutoSubmit.
* Add unconditional Passcard saving by ALT+CLICK on a button or SHIFT+ENTER
in a field.
* Add Ignore Field command to Editor that prevents RoboForm from auto-saving
and auto-filling Turing test fields (the fields that change on every page
visit).
Form Filling and Identity
* Improve form filling algorithm quality and speed.
* Add "Phone" field, so that Home Phone is not filled into Phone fields.
* Add fields for all messengers: Yahoo, AOL, MSN, ICQ.
* Add Business tab that contains business-specific information.
* Show FillNonEmptyFields option on mini FillForms dialog that appears on
Toolbar.
No Currents
We got rid of the notion of Current Passcard, Identity, Safenote. Now every
Passcard, Identity, Safenote has to be selected by name.
* Most Recently Used objects partially replace Currents.
* Several Editor windows of one type can be shown. So now you can see
several Passcards at once.
Portable
* Add Portable license for RoboForm data deployed on removable drives such
as USB drives.
* Latest versions of RoboForm for Palm and RoboForm for Pocket PC support
new RF beta.
* Rename file smpenc.psw to smpenc.rfo to avoid conflicts with Pocket Word
that has PSW extension.
* Store most options in a portable file options.rfo, not in registry.
Password Generator
* Add Password Generator mini-dialog that can fill generated password right
from the toolbar.
* Add option to Exclude Similar Characters such as l and 1, 0 and O.
Beautification
* New colorful icons, real work of art.
* Improve presentation style in Editors.
Miscellaneous
* Remove Empty Values Cause Filling option.
* Blocking passcards now have their own extension RFX and their own icon in
Passcard Editor.
* Resave Files command added, it resaves all RF data files in the newest
formats.
* Reduce number of restrictions in Free version.

The last *free* version of AIRoboForm that is not liteware or crippled is
version 4-6-8, (which I run and it works great.)

However the link on the Pricelesswarehome.org page
http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/2004/PL2004DESKTOP.htm#A125 downloads the
new version (v6.00) which is only a 30 day trial and is crippled.

Are you sure that version is freeware? I just searched and all I found were
crack pages for v4.6.6.

It might be disallowed for archiving old versions.

It might be disallowed for archiving old versions.

Apparently the link (http://www.roboform.net/dist/AiRoboForm-4-6-8.exe)
has been redirected.

I didn't find a link for v 4.6.8 either. . . but. . . it *is* on the
PL2004 CD and we have permission to distribute it that way.

It seems to me I can either:

1. add a note that v 4.6.8 is available on the CD

2. remove AI RoboForm from the Pricelessware List

I'm leaning toward the first option. Comments, please.

Yes, the version I run (4-6-8) is 100% freeware. I find nothing in the
agreement that forbids archiving or distributing old versions. If you would
like a copy, this email address works..let me know.

Susan,

As I just told REM. I find nothing in the agreement that forbids
archiving or distributing old versions. Since you also have permission to
distribute it on the CD..
Then go with your first option.. add a note that v 4.6.8 is available on the
CD.

Thanks, I have a CD. I didn't even think to check it out myself. The several
pages of cracks for earlier versions threw me I guess. That's rather odd.

You don't have the version of the netscape adapter that's compatible
with that version do you. I'm just trialling firefox, running roboform
4.7.3, but the only version of the adapter available requires me to
upgrade roboform

Many thanks in advance
