RE: Password Hiding

It has been my understanding that if you hardcode passwords, keys, etc in source code that a hacker would only need to attach a debugger to the software to figure out what they are. If the users password is associated with the system logon and the user has administrator rights on a domain then this could seriously compromise an entire network.
