    I set myself up with details I need for comps in Identities, this should then put a little icon on your Roboform toolbar. Just click the icon when you want to fill in your details, it's quite easy really, have a play round with it

    ive got roboform and im not sure id say Ive won more but it has definately meant that I can enter comps quicker and easier thus I guess entering more than I would have done if I entered manually

    when you set the autofill up make sure you fill in all the address fields else some sites will actually not use some and you will end up having to add the missing fields. ive actually got my town in twice

    ive also filled in my telephone number twice and my mobile twice - phone, home, work and cell phone fields

    There is a similar thing in Norton 2008 called identity safe and this stores your details and log-ins / passwords. It can be a bit annoying, for instance it does my postcode with 2 spaces so I use it in conjunction with autofill and between them they work most of the time.
    I think that with the vast number of different formats that forms are in, no such tool could be perfect.

    As stated in the thread I use Autofill on google..BUT I thought I would try Roboform and YES it is better. Just tried it on itv comp and its filled in every detail including the mrs section which autofill doesn't...So it looks like Roboform is quicker and hopefully gives more chance of winning....:D

    i think it doesnt give you any better chance of winning
    at the end of the day it;q quicker but if luck isnt on your side then you have no chance
    saying that if anything it might give you less chance of winning because it has its faults and doesnt always enter the information correctly so you do have to be diligent

    I love roboform - i was lucky, managed to get it free as they were offfering it for free if you took out one of their offers - i bought a cheap black ink cartridge, a few hours later i had the full roboform!!!

    Not sure if that offer is still on now tho.

    Ive no idea if i win more, but like others have said, i can enter quicker which helps as i work from home and gives me more time for other things. (i really would sit here all day if i could!!!)
