Default Protect Excel VB macro


Are VB macro passwords secure?

I have password protected my Excel macro, but there appear to be no end
to the number of programs that will crack that password.

Does the complexity of the password affect these programs? If I were to
make my password 20 characters long, comprised of alpha and numeric
characters, would this prevent the password from being overridden?

If VB macro passwords are not secure, then what is the best way to
protect your code?
