No, the RDF file itself is not encrypted, however...

The third option I just suggested in my last email does indeed encrypt 
the values stored in the Advanced Auto-Populate tab, when stored in the 
RDF file, and requires the Master Password to decrypt it - and this 
encryption is pretty strong, so is about as secure as can be fo a 
password that is stored on disk...
