Then this is a place where you really need to be careful.

i had a look and yeah, i'm already puzzled, are these the passwords microB stores for web pages or just the applications themselves?

Any application can use gconf to store integers, booleans and strings containing whatever they like.

Some of the interesting parts are passwords for WiFi AccessPoints and different settings for applications. Browse around a bit in there and see if you find anything tasty. grep is a useful tool if you have some idea about what you're looking for.

i've added var/lib/ ... facebook, hermes, modest, osso/bookmark

That might be enough. But I wouldn't count on it, depending on how determined The Enemy is.
