wait so can i actually go to bitaddress.org disconnect my internet connection then create a wallet turn browser off and i will have a cold wallet?

You can download that webpage as a file and run that file on an offline computer with internet explorer.  You don't need to be connected to the web to use IE.


YES you could, download bitaddress.org, disconect your computer, create it and it's... offline until you reconnect your computer to the web..... It's only semi cold using this method.  As I said if your comp has malaware it's just going to record your keystrokes and forward it to the hacker when you reconnect.

HOWEVER this method will stop people that are connect to your comp watching it or just sending live key strokes. 

Semi cold is way better than hot.
i guess im good with that semi cold... what is the possibility that someone is actually recording my mouse moves through a virus? i guess thats nearly impossible, thank you for your help the thread can be locked as the problem was solved

So i recently saw a bug with blockchain.info  and im a newbie on bitcoin wallets so i decided to move my wallet from there. I would like to use a wallet that is safe and that can be recovered in case of loosing it or something like that. Any suggestions what should i use?

Edit: is multibit a good alternative? and if yes how can the wallet be recovered on it in case of an emergency?

Personally I would use Electrum. Been using it for almost a year now and so far I haven't encountered any bugs, not to mention it is very newbie-friendly (at least for me.)

Btw, what kind of "emergency" are we talking about here?
i was talking about hard drive crash, reinstall of windows, viruses and stuff like that

also i forgot to mention that im not sure if my pc is free of viruses, is it safe to use multibit or electrum then? cant wallet files get stolen?

Then blockchain.info won't be much or any more secure than those options if you access it with your computer.
so as far as i understood i should use electrum yes?

I think it mostly depends on the amount you intend to keep in a wallet. Web wallets should be considered 'hot', holding just enough for what you need to use daily (check out Coinbase). Mobile wallets are also considered hot (check out Bitcoin Wallet on Android, Breadwallet on iOS or Mycelium). Any considerable amount of coins should be stored in a 'cold' wallet - one without access to the internet (check out Paper Wallets, Hardware Wallets or specialized software like Armory).
i checked out armory software though it says that i should store the cold wallet on a computer without internet access and i have only one pc... paper wallets are not ok for me as i can easily loose it and hardware wallets need buying stuff. also any ideas about multibit? is it also a hot wallet?
