The current plan is to password-protect private keys in the wallet and unlock them when coins are sent (with an option to 'remember the password' for a certain period of time) for the 0.4 release. @p{par}

That doesn't completely fix the problem (a keystroke logger can get your password, and a virus can insert itself so instead of sending 10 BTC to your grandma in Boise it makes bitcoin send your entire wallet balance to Little Bobby Blackhat). @p{par}

To almost completely fix the problem transactions would need to be created on one device and then verified on a second device.  Assuming both devices aren't infected/compromised, that will be safe. The two devices would be your computer and something else@p{--} maybe a website, If anybody has experience with that type of cross-device security/programming and is interested in helping Bitcoin out, help would be much appreciated. @p{brk}
