Personally, I believe this to be very safe. That is because I 'trust' Bruce Schneier & Counterpane Labs.

You can examine and audit the source code if you wish, since it is available. I have not done so.

    I'll flog a little program that I have just started using,
    relevant here
    because one of it's functions includes the generation of a random
    password. You can config the resultant password to be one or many of
    UPPER/lower/numeric/symbol and of a specified length.

    The proggie itself is a secure password-repository database and the
    random pw generator is a 'feature'. I've recently taken to using it
    because I otherwise found myself with too many website logins, yahoo
    ID's, list subscriptions, login ID's that required a password and
    I was
    tending to use the same one.

    Good program. It is the result of work done by the counterpane folks
    (security guru Bruce Schneier & Counterpane Labs).
