Password Manager XP is out for $30
Password Manager XP is a convenient software application for storing passwords, access codes, social security and credit card numbers and other valuable information that needs protection. The program allows buyers to systemize and encrypt this data to store it safely and securely, while making sure that it can be accessed and processed easily, when needed.
Program’s features include capability to encrypt stored information with several encryption algorithms simultaneously (Blowfish, 3DES, Rijndael, Tea, Cast128, RC4, Serpent, Twofish). Importantly, no temporary files are ever created, guaranteeing the encrypted data will never be intercepted. The blocks of information are cleared from the computer memory as soon as they are no longer needed. And if the program is left idle for a set period of time, it will automatically shut down, making sure no one gets access to any sensible information.

“sensible” should probably be “sensitive”?

I prefer the FREE CyberScrub KeyChain Password Manager and Auto Form Filler
http://www.cyberscrub.com/keychain
We use this app at work and it beats the pants off Roboform. This is from their site:
Manage ALL Passwords with One Phrase. When you log on to KeyChain with your Master Pass Phrase you will have instant access to all of your password protected websites. Select your destination from a special list you have created- then simply “Click & Go”. It’s that easy! Each time you visit a site requiring a user name and password KeyChain auto enters this information and logs you in. It even prompts you to add these passwords to the program if you have not already done so. Never manually fill in credit card details again. Online shopping is a snap because KeyChain automatically enters your selected credit card details, Shipping and Billing address and more. All of your data is secured with strong encryption. Only you have access to the sensitive data within KeyChain. All information, including passwords, credit cards and other data, is protected with strong encryption algorithms. The USB flash drive also synchronizes with your host computer to back up your encrypted password list. This is an important feature should your PC crash or fail. You may also utilize the USB flash drive, if desired, for Dual User Authentication. This requires the user to not only enter the Master Pass Phrase, but also to plug the USB flash drive into their computer. Easy to use, backed award winning CyberScrub Customer Support.

WSA, the program you mention is not free, see the site. I usually rely on my browser’s password filling capabilities and it covers all my needs. But this only works as long as I’m using my laptop.
If I use someone else’s computer, and I need form filling, I use Password Carrier. This one’s great advantage is that it doesn’t get in my way, and has a very very simple GUI. Regardless of that, it works fine and does its job without asking a zillion questions.
