There has been some fairly significant changes to the APIs with the release of 4.1. I would highly recommend that you check to make sure you have the latest version of William’s excellent script. If that doesn’t help, you may want to leave a comment for him.

Definitely want to make sure VIMA is properly secured as the rest of your infrastructure. Hopefully this is something that may get enhanced in future releases of VIMA to harden the processes on how the passwords are generated/stored.
