Well, most scammers only work with keyloggers and if they never can register the keystrokes that make up your password you are fiiiine.

I doubt this. I wouldn't know but it just seems dumb to do it that way. I'm pretty sure it wasn't how I got hacked.

As for avoiding bad links and shady torrents, before they got me I always thought I was safe as well. Now I use the authenticator.

As much as I wanna give sympathy, the last time I was hacked I walked away with 25,000 gold. So.. Lucky you.

Authenticators are the best ever for protection.

You'd have to be an idiot to get hacked with an authenticator, or get hit by a meteor and gain superpowers; whichever came first.

I heard they were planning on including authenticators with Cataclysm though, can't remember where though.

Grats!

Did you get anything extra?

If you get hacked, you must fail drastically. =|
