I really love this tool, but (hehehe first the carrot, then the stick ;) )
it is really annoying and feels strange, that i allways have to enter my password twice.

When creating a container, it is reasonable, cause if i mistype my password i never will be able to open it, but when opening an existing container?

You are definitely right, it is of no use to have 2 fields when opening a file. I will add a one-field password requester in the next version of the program. Thanks for the suggestion :D.

Version 4.1 of BPM is now ready. Here is the list of changes:
-Added an option to turn off the program quit confirmation
-Added a check to restrict the program from running on Win 95,98 and ME
-Fixed a problem with some URLs not being opened in the default browser
-Fixed entry searching not working correctly
-Fixed the drag-and-drop problems with masked fields
-Optimized the logging library (program will be faster when run from memory sticks)
-Made some minor modifications to the error callback
-Removed the password confirmation field from the password dialog (when opening containers)
D/L link in first post :D.

Hi Inf0Byt3,

not sure, if you are willing to do some maintenance on your BPM, but anyway there is one thing annoying me:
Would it be possible to add an option to automatically load the last open *.bpm file?
Of course I still would have to enter the password then, but it would make life much easier (for lazy guys as me).

Still love this tool :!:

Hi HeX0R,

Sorry for the slow reply.

I have been planning to update BPM, but couldn't find the time. There will be a major overhaul to the program (especially security-wise) and I'll make sure to add your suggestion as well, but it might have to wait a bit because currently I don't have a stable internet connection. I'll release an update as soon as things get better.
