If you are signing up for something that demands at least 10 characters and must include numbers AND signs AND capitals, then it requires that you comply and will reject any password not complying.

KeePass Password Safe give you the ability to save password profiles for sites that have specific requirements.
Here is an example from one site I use:
Code:
The PASSWORD must:
be 9 to 30 characters in length
contain at least one UPPERCASE letter (A-Z)
contain at least one lowercase letter (a-z)
contain at least one number (0-9)
contain at least one of the following special characters: # @ $ ^ ! * + = _ %
change at least four characters from the previous Password
The PASSWORD CANNOT:
contain spaces
be one of your 5 previous passwords
My settings in order as listed.
Code:
Length of generated password: 20
Upper-case (A, B, C, ...) checked.
Lower-case (a, b, c, ...) checked.
Digits (0, 1, 2, ...) checked.
Minus (-) not checked.
Underline (_) checked.
Space ( ) not checked.
Special (!, $, %, &, ...) not checked.
Brackets ([, ], {, }, (, ), <, >) not checked.
Latin-1 Supplement (Ä, µ, ¶, ..) not checked.
Also include the following characters: #@$%^!*+=
I can save this as a profile and use it every time I need to generate a new password which for this site is every 150 days.
Here is more information on KeePass's
Password Generator.
I currently have 7 profiles saved.
