Passwords Extension

Even today there are people who make use of simple passwords for their important services. The consequence is, that these passwords are easy to crack and hacker have access to the concerned peoples accounts.
The solution for this is \"Passwords\" - a browser extension for Google Chrome, with which strong 4- to 25-digit passwords can be generated, that are very difficult to crack because they are randomly generated.

When a user registers himself in an online service and needs a strong password, he only has to click on the Passwords symbol and is immediately able to locally generate passwords. The browser extension does not send or receive any data to/from remote servers, so that no generated passwords can be catched.
