I have never found a way to protect a password then i looked into it and found out how so for those who don't know how to here you go.

Theres one step to this process.
Find out which Edit box you want to be your password box and put this in
edit2.passwordchar :='*'

in this my edit box is Edit2 and you can choose most symbols for example i made mine ยค so there you go thats all you have to do.

Intermediate then. Hell, my second script had a form. But rather than password "protection", it would be more properly called password "masking".

Well if a mod has to move it then they can.

Tell me again why we would need to do this?
BTW, nice tut, I had no clue you could do that, I just used 128bit encoding XD

You could use this when you are running a script with forms, and it would protect your password from your sneaky little brother ;) And also, could you explain a little bit about 128 bit encoding with SCAR?
