How? I read the whole thread. Were you talking about the repair scenario?

No, I don't think I missed anything here. You and others seemed to imply that
reading those plaintext passwords was only possible if someone had physical
access. Either when he sat down at your machine to carry out the exploits
mentioned in the article, or when you gave your hard disk out for repair. This
isn't necessary.
