    I have a few questions about the TPM chip...

    1) If I don't have Client Security Solutions installed do applications still use it?

    2) What applications actually use the TPM chip?

    3) If I use the TPM chip does that mean that the passwords for lets say IE9 are no longer stored in settings, but on the chip only?

    Thanks guys.
