[Guide] Keep Password from Keyloggers

[roxbury22]

If you treasure your WoW account(s) and don't want them to get stolen away by a naughty keylogger, here is a way to keep your password safe from keyloggers.

Go on Google, or another search engine, and type in a random word. Many results will come up. Say you want your password to be prettypen123. From the random word search, copy and paste each letter onto a Word or Notepad document. So get a "p", and a "r", and etc. After you have it on a Word or Notepad document, all you really need to do now is copy and paste it to preserve it's safety. This way, the keylogger will have no evidence that you typed anything.

This is only if you have the type of security that lets keyloggers in :P

Keyloggers keep track of copy and paste items.
Nasty little things, they exploit everything!
Only way to protect is virus scan and remove the little bugger, or go onto another computer.
Another way is just to never do anything that could get you a keylogger.
Either way, it was a nice try and smart thinking. Reminds me of those ransom notes that use letters from magazines.
P.S. It will probably protect you from the basic keyloggers but definitely not all.

Fire Fox + No Script + SpyDoctor + Spyware Search and destroy + AVG + Scans daily + Firewall == No keyloggers

Because I thought that guys avatar was a bug on my screen, and I smashed it.

Nonetheless, good keyloggers take clipboard actions aswell, so copy + paste does nothing, neither does on screen keyboard.

Could you not infact use a voice program to say your password and then have it translated and then put into the password box?
