A popup window every time it is clicked would be effective, but probably
kind of annoying. Perhaps the warning could be issued in brief right under
the checkbox with a "More info" or "Read more" link, either pointing to
more information on your pidgin.im or maybe just a simple help popup
window.

[ ] Remember Password
Warning: When choosing this option, your
password is stored unencrypted. [Read more...]

Something like the above would probably be enough.
