But they are still unlocked with your passphrase though, right? PGP,
Hushmail, Mark Twain Digicash, Digigold all require(d) a passphrase to
access the account, view the encrypted content, or spend the cash to
somebody.

If you don't have a secure computer, it doesn't matter how many layers of
external protection exist, your items of value with be taken from you.

On a slightly different note...

This might be another reason that e-gold is mainly (seriously) used by
libertarians. One of the main pillars of libertarian philosophy is the
idea of self-rule, and thus self-responsibility. It is not e-gold ltd's
fault if you cannot adequately keep control of your own identity.
