I would like to add the following.
While is "IS' possible to "get into" a user account a number of ways,
(especially if you have physical access),
you STILL have the problem that anything encrypted by the OS
under a specific user and their password(s) will be NOT readable
after you access that user's account...

(Disclaimer: I do not use any of the encryption stuff, so do not claim
to be the final authority on it...)
