Can you password protect the Wand (password) manager on Opera?

Says it all in the title, really.

Following a virus I've had to re-install windows from scratch so I'm looking at easy ways to store passwords. I've used roboform before, but the wand manager in Opera is exceptionally easy to use.

The only problem is that I haven't found a way to password protect the wand manager. Am I a dummer and missing an obvious way to do this?

    this might be of help, not used Opera for a long time

    If you want to protect your Wand from other users on the same computer by setting a master password, go to the Security preferences under "Advanced".
