However, Windows could have been programmed so that data in masked text boxes is not available to other programs. I see no reason to allow this to be the case.

This is (basically) called user permissions. Unix/Linux has it and Windows XP doesn't. Longhorn is supposed to have it. On the other hand, if a hacker is good enough to get superuser or root access, then permissions don't matter.

I have a related question for anyone who might know. Is there a program to retrieve stored AIM passwords? Those other programs that unmask the ***** won't work because AIM just has "Saved - click here to change" in the PW area. Thanks for any help.
