I don't know what the actual state of password protection is in MC, but in general you cannot change/undo a stack's password without knowing that password. The "passkey" string above is the same as the stack's password string; you are prevented from setting the password property directly, without first setting the passkey to the stack's password. Plus, setting the passkey property is temporary, working only for the current session until the stack is removed from memory. The next time you open the stack, the password is enabled and scripts are protected. It may sound a bit roundabout, but I'm sure it's no different that what LiveCode uses in the IDE.
