Subject: Re: Another reason the new sandbox is the virtual machine..... Bad Chrome disSecurity
I don't use chrome, but Firefox can be rigged even if you use lastpass.
I haven't bothered to count the times
that killing the Firefox process and starting it up again got me back
into lastpass. Same for a restart when
enabling or adding an extension. Someone could write a popular
extension that takes advantage of this.

The inverse is that lastpass could be more comprehensive in its
coverage, covering most situations and
most applications that need a password. This would be especially
helpful when used on an android
or iOS machine, etc.
