Electrum passwords

I was just wondering about this too. You should also run osk (type it in the start area) on windows to use the on screen keyboard desktop app to make it safer (just type some characters with the keyboard).

That's not safer. It's worse!

A hacker could see exactly what you're typing and key logging software may still defect it also.

Good point !
I have found is a very intersting comparative test on virtual keyboards safety tested against keyloggers, including those that can capture screenshots on mouse clicks. please see here :

The conclusion suggests that only those provided with some anitvirus programs are completely safe..

Some are pretty effective, but not perfect. The conclusion suggests that only those provided with some anitvirus programs are completely safe..

Electrum has its own virtual keyboard you can select in the plugin options but not sure how safe it is. The windows one I thought might be better. The point is not to type the whole password with the keyboard and just some characters.

The Oxynger one seems to be safe from almost anything. You can also combine it with another to make it 100% secure.
