I can't reproduce that (just tested in v9.0.3), which is a good thing
because it would definitely be a bug.
The Message Box is just a stack with scripts, not a compiled engine
component as with HC's Message Box. If LC's Message Box can't call
routines in a password-protected stack, neither could anything else.
That would break a lot of projects, and make protected libraries
instantly useless.
What else might be going on with what you saw? Got a recipe I can try?
