Have you tried copying a macro containing an encrypted password from one system to another and seeing if it works?

I have not. That would be a worthwhile experiment. I don't have
convenient means to do that.

But mainly, I was thinking that if someone could get their hands on
your macro, they have access to your computer, and so they can log in
as you *from your computer*.

My guess is that the macro file would also work from other computers.
