What is the best way to synchronize a file between multiple computers?  

Here's my problem.  I have an file which I use to store passwords,
logons, and other user data.  I would like to always look at the most
recent version of this file from any computer.  However, I would like
to also have a copy of this file stored locally on each computer as
I'm not always connected to the Internet.

I would like a way to automate downloading of the most recent version
to each of my computers and to automate as well the updating of the
file whenever I make changes.  While security is a worry, the file is
the database of the applicaton AnyPassword and is heavily encrypted. 
In addition, I also have hosting accounts were I could have the master
file located.

Any assistance in where the file could reside in a recent version at
every location as well as download/update the master offsite file
would be greatly appreciated.

If still needing a further clarification of what I'm looking for, this
mirrors bookmark synchronization I use in Firefox.  The master
bookmark list is stored on an FTP server but the most recent version
is downloaded and resides on each terminal I choose to synchronize.  I
am looking for the simplest way to do this.

The OS I will be using on each computer will be Windows XP.
