This problem has been mitigated in OS X with Keychain, Gnome with Keyring and KDE with Kwallet. If there would be a standard application like that for passwords in Windows it would probably make it easier for most users to keep their passwords from being so easily accessible in cleartext (and I know there are a lot of 3rd party options available, but only power users tend to install those).
