Install Ubuntu (Linux) or similar to boot from a USB stick
store and use your bitcoin wallet there

You can take it and use it on any computer and easily drop it in a fireproof safe,
and it's mostly offline away from hackers, and away from your virus ridden Windows PC. 

Don't mine on the same computer as your bitcoin wallet

Thanks for the good advice!

Or lets just not get a virus?

But yes, a viable idea if you have 25k bitcoins to protect. Could be due to make a live OS just for loading up a bitcoin wallet from the SD(SD contains OS + wallet).

My plan is to mine on one machine and regularly (every XXX coins) send bitcoins to another wallet which i will create new for every such transfer using another clean "just for transactions" computer then I will be saving each newly created wallet dat file on two flash drives (second is a backup copy) and will store them in safety deposit box in my bank.

I suggest you guys to be very responsible with your btc wallet. I have a lot of friends who had their money stolen. Terrible situation for them.

How secure is https://blockchain.info/wallet for storing wallet info?
Assume the computer used to access wallet is never infected, and that BTC will never exceed 100.

Really helpful post.I heard that the most secure free OS is OpenBSD. So i will try to use that

How safe is MtGox youbikey comparing to keeping your BTC on pendrive?
To me it is super convenient and easy to use. What do you think?
