Passwords revealed

I have just been playing with the SIW software on me W7 machine, as you do, and I noticed that under the 'Software' heading there is a reference to 'Passwords' Clicked on that out of curiosity and there under an 'Auto complete password' heading is my PayPal user name and password. Ouch! Each time I log on to PayPal it asks me for the password, there's no 'autocomplete' involved. How did SIW find it and, more importantly. does anyone know how I can get rid of it? Given how easy it is to load and run SIW it seems to be quite a serious security risk. If I can't kill it I could create a new password - but will SIW get hold of that too?
