Well, maybe. The issue is password protection. If "they" have access to your computer early on, and they almost certainly would, they can put in a keyboard sniffer to snatch your password -- and there goes the safety afforded by your encryption, no matter how robust the algorithm itself may be. There are ways around this, but I've rarely seen them discussed, much less implemented.
