u shold never store $$$ on your hard drive, you hard knocks.

Try a brain wallet and use a few clues that you can use to help you remember the brain wallet and store it in several places.  

That is a sure way to ensure that no one will ever steal your money.

my brain wallets are as hard as fort knox.

Here is one  of my brain wallets.  I feel no problem storing my real bit coins in there.

1LBZcMTRB1Pr9UJQnGTVKcLv6jsDimrD2y

It is as hard as fort knox and it is not stored online or in my hard drive.

If you don't want moey to be stolen, tri using ur brain, dubm fuks.


Different OS doesn't matter that much (I can show you numerous documented security holes in popular Linux distros). What matters is how you care about your data being vulnerable. If you leave your wallet full of money in a car on the street, it doesn't really matter that much if it's an expensive Mercedes or a cheap Fiat: it may be stolen just by breaking the car's glass.

However, there are some uses for lowering the probability of getting hacked. For example, as an additional security measure, one could use a standalone laptop with a totally different OS and CPU (say, PowerBook with a PowerPC CP)U, so that email trojans which use Windows's software vulnerabilities won't work, plus no x86 code won't work because it's a PPC CPU.

Default wallet place is in application data folder, to reach maximum safety. move your wallet to another place in your hard drive and don't download thirdparty files to make your wallet secure.

i agree to this. So before installing any application or software, always check for feedback about it or do a background research about it.


best hopes to you guys.

No OS is safe... Because of the market though (windows has the biggest share in sales) the target of the exploits/viruses is the one that can spread the most. So windows is the most targeted OS. That being said it's a matter of preference really.

Antivirus doesn't always help - it's best against widely distributed older viruses, but often would not help against specialized trojans.
Brain 1.0 is the best antivirus against most threats - it just does not work automatically, you need to explicitly use it.

There is a (new?) trojan wallet stealer out in the wild ATM.

Plenty of script kiddies and scammers are going to be trying to get you to download and install it, what's more they'll be putting posts to do so (using lies obviously).

Don't install anything linked to on this forum, unless it's been found by someone with a good reputation to be legit. Assume everything is an attempt to steal your wallet.

You should also encrypt your wallet when not in use.
http://www.freeotfe.org/

Here is a portable apps version http://www.freeotfe.org/downloads/FreeOTFEExplorer_3_51.paf.exe

You have been warned.

Nefario

Your so right I will not download this in your link, how do we know its not a wallet stealer like you said.
I might have, had it been from a good rep member.

And its gone.

Yes it is possible now too. Almost all things which were possible earlier is possible now too but not all things which are possible now aren't possible earlier. Hope you understand! Smiley
