If you enter a correct password, then when you subsequently run it with a wrong password, it does not return the error until you quit the script and run it again, using a wrong password the first time--but if you ever enter the correct password, it will no longer return the error.

Does this mean that passwords kept in AppleScript globals are written to the file, as raw test, containing the script so as to preserve the variables through a quit and restart operation?

Sounds like a security flaw to me. Is there a better way to define the variable than as a property?
