Something in the manual

This is in the manual, regarding the remember password option. I was curious as to how unsafe it actually is, the manual makes it sound serious.

By unsafe does it mean that if someone else gets onto your computer they can find out the password? Or that it's automatically copied to the desktop background of the closest known hacker? Maybe it just means that anyone else can just logon as you if you use a random public computer. Just wondering, as I use the option.

I think this' ok in this board.

That means that the passwort it stored uncrypted on your computer.

Meaning that someone else on my computer could view it?

Ah, well I'm the only one who uses my computer so I think I'm alright. Thanks for the help.
