This is also good for credit card information, etc. just in case you're worried about the possibility of having a keylogger or something similar.
    I think many record when it is copied or pasted.

    I'm surprised this thread even got this much attention.

    Well, I know that scanning your PC is the smartest thing to do,
    however, anti virus programs does mistakes too.
    You are most likely safe 98% of the times you log onto WoW,
    but there is nothing wrong with a little bit extra security, is it?

    a keylogger picks up ownedmmo21

    Any stupid that wants your account can figure it out in ~15 minutes. Even if it's scrambled more than that.

    And if that did show up, it would take what, a minute tops to figure it out?
