I'm experimenting with KeePass, so far it does most of what I like so it may be a keeper. The stand-alone version is a great feature.

I won't use an on-line password manager -- they are all perfectly safe until they get hacked the first time. If something is accessible, it WILL get hacked at some point. As someone else said, if a hacker can't get at the media, they can't hack it.

Long ago I wrote an MS Access database app that stores URL, UID, PWD, up to 5 security Q&A, plus a general use memo field. I keep it on a stick (have 2 backup sticks in secure places) in an encrypted zip file. The file names have nothing to do with computers, the web, or security. [I need to investigate encrypting the stick, which I might do even if I switch to KeePass.]

This doesn't allow automatic login to anything ... but it won't get hacked unless I'm stupid with the stick.
