Xmarks - Browser Bookmark and Password Sync and Backup

According to Xmarks, their "...sync browser add-on is one of the most popular in the world with over fourteen million downloads and counting. Xmarks is available as a free add-on for Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Safari (Mac OS) and can be downloaded here."

I use Xmarks in Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer and Chrome.  All bookmarks are synced between all of my computers and passwords are synced between computers using Firefox.  All of your passwords are encrypted with a one time password that you enter, so Xmarks can't get them.

As you type a URL into your browser, all of the latest browsers search your bookmarks to try to help find what you're looking for.  If you bookmark sites that you go to, you don't have to actually use those bookmarks and it will still help you to have them synced.
