I am astonished that this problem is reported so often and still unattented. Of course physical access to a machine makes it easy for an intruder to access and change your files. But still it should not be made to easy. Otherwise why are there passwords anyway for people who access the machine locally in the first place. Of course this is made so that it is not to easy. This should also apply for the recovery mode.
