I made a tutorial last night on a method to encrypt your wallet and keep it handy, so it's still easy to use, but protected against trojan attacks.  It gets a little sloppy toward the end, but you'll get the idea

this only works if the drive is not mounted when the trojan is active. so it's pretty much useless.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

I really hope the next client update has encrypted wallets.

I mounted my drive without an active trojan. Now I have to pay child support.
