Password Still Visible In Settings #63

NUT connection password is still visible in plain text in settings. Registry is now encrypted and OK.

Applying a "TextBox.PasswordChar Property" or similar to the entry box will solve this issue. Seeing the standard bubble dots will add privacy to the application. Username can be left visible.
