It's an old article and they only use one password.

Is there any way to revamp this idea? Use the thumb drive to bank different passwords and have the site you are on autoscan the drive?

Just asking because I is computer stupid.

1) most thumb drives aren’t very high quality. Better back up it’s data if you want to go that route.
2) I don’t know of any thumdrive solution that would scan the drive based on what website you are on. Not to say it doesn’t exist, but smells of a security risk to me.

Reminds me of the old joke about the inventor of the USB connection had died. He was inserted into the ground, raised, turned over and inserted again.
