Hi - Newbie here trying to digest all this. It would be helpful for me if you clarified whether the 'generated password' was the same as any of the 'keys' you talked about. Is this account password the : 'The private key or password for the owner key (?) should be kept offline as much as possible.' ? I have authorized my first two posts and soon this one with my account password - did I do the right thing? Also, what is 'WIF' that appears in the login window? gah! Thanks, WOE

The main password is your owner key - it let's you do anything so it is best to only use the key that you need and avoid using the OK. Posting lets you post and vote. Active lets you do transactions - memo let's you send messages but it isn't really used yet. Only the Owner Key (Main password) allows you to change the other keys and also change the master password itself. Not sure what WIF stands for perhaps someone else can clarify that.
