• prompting the user to enter a uniform resource locator (URL) and the username and password combination;
• storing the URL as a stored URL in a database of the master account and storing the username and password combination as a stored encrypted username and password combination in the database of the master account;
• enabling the user to view the stored URL and the username and password combination;
• enabling the user to modify the stored URL and the username and password combination;
• determining the structure of login forms for the website;
• and
• enabling the user to upload encrypted username and password combinations to the web server, the encrypted username and password combinations locally stored by a web browser, the encrypted username and password combinations associated with the respective password protected websites.
