Best 'encrypted' password manager for browsers (chrome/firefox/IE)?

thanks guys, had a look. I know visuals mean nothing, but it looks a bit dated/dodgy? lol
Does it remember the passwords for Firefox, or is it a database you unlock and copy/paste every time you want to login kind of thing? (only looked around it briefly have to go out -hoping someone can chip in!)

Hey all
I know this was a while back, but finally got round to trying out KeePass.
I've done several entries, however I notice if i copy and paste the password it appears as asterix's in the password entry however when pasting it into word, notepad etc it literally pastes the password.
Might sound stupid, but how is this secure? Also, does KeePass pop up when you're at a login stage or do you need to manually open it, enter database password and then copy and paste what you want there?
Edit; looking at 1password and lastpass but don't like the idea of it syncing anywhere - want it locally really.

Ok so I've just tried LastPass and thought Google Auth was a good idea.
Only problem is, every time I login to a site to 'retrieve' my new random passwords, it doesn't ever ask for the Google Auth code and only asks for the master password?

Yup, I saw that but I didn't tick it because I want it to ask me everytime yet it continued as if I had ticked it.
Being OTT I know, but that way if worse case scenario I had a keylogger - then by them needing to use Google Auth every time would mean that they couldn't use it...
Thoughts on why it might not be letting me do that, or if what I want is possible?
