Is it worth password protecting my laptop when it is turned on or comes out of hibernation?

Protecting my laptop has to be a good thing as it holds details of login ids for various financial adviser websites, but is a password likely to stop anyone who decides that they would quite like to get their hands on it?

It is a Windows XP (Home) laptop, and no, entwisi, I can't change that!!!
