Hide passwords from code !!
There's no way you can stop someone with a de{*filter*} from getting any
password that you store in a program. Even if it's an algorithmic
password (like the program asking the user one of many questions, etc,
or to compute a formula based on the day of the week, etc.) someone
that has access to a debu

gger and some determination will be able to extract the password from
the binary code. No amount of obfuscation can prevent that -- it can
only make it harder.
