Want to hide password

All,

In my script I am calling another script.. in that script I need to enter a password. Problem is that everyone is able to see the password when I enter that. Is there any way that when i enter that password it should not display or may look like *******.

Or if there any other way that I save this password somewhere else so that no need to enter that password.


Thanks & Regards
A K
