Keep everything in KeePass... best program ever.  http://keepass.info/

Doesn't really help much if you change your passwords in a fit of stupidity, does it?

I'd rather have my passwords in the safest place possible, inside my head, than somewhere where any half assed script-kiddie can get their hands on them.

Most likely there was some keyboard issue. But to confirm it might be wallet related, you can try command line first to isolate the problem
ppcoind walletpassphrase
ppcoind walletlock


Backup wallet using qt menu or ppcoind backupwallet. Use pywallet (http://github.com/ppcoin/pywallet) to dump the wallet file to see if any problem
python pywallet.py --dumpwallet --password=

I really couldn't confirm anything. I probably changed the password without remembering it.

Thank god for backups! The old backup had the old password Smiley

So, I've encrypted my PPC wallet. I used the client to send 5 coins to another wallet, and it worked like a charm.
When I tried again a few minutes later, with the same password, in the same client, it tells me the password is wrong.

I strongly doubt that someone has changed the password on my wallet during this time ( all my other wallets, containing far more coins are untouched ).

Is there a bug that could cause this or is this just me being retarded ?

I did restart the wallet before it wacked out.

Caps lock?  Grin

I'm not that stupid
