I think so. I'm much more concerned about browser insecurities and web application - cross site scripting issues. Those are scarier. In fact, I don't have any special data on my computer. It's all pretty much on other web sites; e.g., banking and the like. All of which I have to access via a web browser. If someone stole my computer today they wouldn't gain anything really besides a piece of hardware. My data is not really financially important -- just stuff like music, pictures, documents. Whoop-de-doo. I suppose if I worry about passwords, I worry about what I use on those web sites and how they're transmitted from my computer to those web sites, and how Firefox stores them for me.
