For a school project I needed to do the same thing. I stored the passwords in a XML file after encrypting them. I based myself on the following tutorial: http://www.obviex.com/samples/Encryption.aspx
Of course, someone who knows the cypherkey you used can decrypt the data again for evil use, but I think you may assume that the user (if you store the password in a file in the user's home dir) knows his password.

Hi,

My application needs to access to internet for some task. In some area (mine in
particular :-)), I need to use a proxy to access internet. This proxy needs
login and password.

Could some one give me some advice to manage the storing of the password ? At
the present time it is directly in a file ...
