If you're using strong enough passwords, your keys would still be pretty safe. An attacker could try cracking them offline, but that could take a very long time. As to your question, once someone roots your box all bets are off. If you're really paranoid about these keys, keep them on a dedicated machine that's extremely locked down. Or even a machine with no network at all, and move data back and forth on a usb drive. -Ed
