    Hi,

    I was wondering if i should delete the wp-config.php file after install?

    If not, then is the username and password really that secure stored in a php file?

    Do NOT delete the wp-config.php file. It is NEEDED to run Wordpress.
    It it save to leave it where it is. The php files are executed by the server and will not be downloaded.
    There are some more discussion about this on the forum
