Hello,

Mozilla and Netscape have the ability to password protect - that is
encrypt using a master password - the list of passwords stored. For
example, if you would like Mozilla to remember your password for
Hotmail and Salon, Mozilla can remember both and fill them in as
needed. But to prevent unauthorized access to this list of passwords,
it is recommended you encrypt your list of passwords using a "master
password" which you provide the first time it is needed, per browser
session.
The password manager also remembers passwords used by Mozilla's email
program; yet this password system does *not* encrpyt the email files
or bookmarks which are also stored within your Profile.

Hope this helps.
