    Although I don't use it that much anymore, probably my Netscape.net email account.
  4. My oldest would probably be hotmail. Im registered on somewhere between 100-110 websites. I'd like to close half of these accounts, but most websites don't give you that option.
  5. My old yahoo account i made in 2002 , it still has all the personal and professional mails since the day i created it. Seeing the 10 years old mails make me nostalgic every time.

    Hotmail since I've abandoned ICQ ages ago otherwise it may have been the oldest. Probably I won't be abandoning my oldest email as there is not much difference amongst the alternatives, so why bother.

    I don't know how to check how old they are but it's my Yahoo mail and ICQ that is the oldest that I still use (daily at that)

    Well, since i was a late comer to the Internet (2010,) my first account that i still use is Techspot itself. I registered Techspot under my Yahoo address, but since i don't use it anymore that doesn't count (Gmail all the way for me now)

    I am currently registered at 35 websites that require a password; I only visit 8 on a regular basis though.

    But yeah, Techspot was the first!

    My Gmail adress. I never even check it, unless needed for registration, or told to do so.
  15. What is a "password manager" ..???
  16. Probably my EQ account, since March 1999
  17. My aol account, which I still use every day for the email account, that I registered back in 1995. Back when going online at a whopping 2400 bps modem...good times!

    My Yahoo! account is the oldest one I still use.

    Besides that, my Steam account and my TS account (not kidding!) are probably the oldest ones I'm still using on a daily basis.
  20. My bank account :D
