-Wallet Encryption
------------------
-Bitcoin supports native wallet encryption so that people who steal your
-wallet file don't automatically get access to all of your Bitcoins.
-In order to enable this feature, chose "Encrypt Wallet" from the
-Options menu.  You will be prompted to enter a passphrase, which
-will be used as the key to encrypt your wallet and will be needed
-every time you wish to send Bitcoins.  If you lose this passphrase,
-you will lose access to spend all of the bitcoins in your wallet,
-no one, not even the Bitcoin developers can recover your Bitcoins.
-This means you are responsible for your own security, store your
-password in a secure location and do not forget it.
-
-Remember that the encryption built into bitcoin only encrypts the
-actual keys which are required to send your bitcoins, not the full
-wallet.  This means that someone who steals your wallet file will
-be able to see all the addresses which belong to you, as well as the
-relevant transactions, you are only protected from someone spending
-your coins.
-
-It is recommended that you backup your wallet file before you
-encrypt your wallet.  To do this, close the Bitcoin client and
-copy the wallet.dat file from ~/.bitcoin/ on Linux, /Users/(user
-name)/Application Support/Bitcoin/ on Mac OSX, and %APPDATA%/Bitcoin/
-on Windows (that is /Users/(user name)/AppData/Roaming/Bitcoin on
-Windows Vista and 7 and /Documents and Settings/(user name)/Application
-Data/Bitcoin on Windows XP).  Once you have copied that file to a
-safe location, reopen the Bitcoin client and Encrypt your wallet.
-If everything goes fine, delete the backup and enjoy your encrypted
-wallet.  Note that once you encrypt your wallet, you will never be
-able to go back to a version of the Bitcoin client older than 0.4.
-
-Keep in mind that you are always responsible for you own security.
-All it takes is a slightly more advanced wallet-stealing trojan which
-installs a keylogger to steal your wallet passphrase as you enter it
-in addition to your wallet file and you have lost all your Bitcoins.
-Wallet encryption cannot keep you safe if you do not practice
-good security, such as running up-to-date antivirus software, only
-entering your wallet passphrase in the Bitcoin client and using the
-same passphrase only as your wallet passphrase.
