I know that the best is cold storage and keeping keys in a safehouse but what if I need to be 100% secure with current daily basis transcations, to prevent situations like https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=279413.0 |

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Any wallet with built-in encryption will prevent unauthorized access. Keep in mind that no amount of encryption will help if you're being keylogged, so keep your system secure from malicious software.

Ok, despite security I want to be anonymous. Does Armory provide anonymity like you can't be connected with wallet owner's IP when using Armory?

Armory uses bitcoin-qt for network communication. You can use blockchain.info to broadcast your transactions, if you don't want to expose your ip to the public. |

So false! Blockchain.info actually pars your ip with the transaction if you create it on their site. Otherwise they use the relaying node's ip.
orly? A random transaction I pulled off the site: https://i.minus.com/idppJYCQHteTw.png |

The world's most safe wellet is probably the astronauts on the ISS keep on them to hold their pictures. The chances of someone stealing are astronomical.

Armory and electrum both are good and pretty much safe.
Use Armory if you have 64 bit OS.

Electrum isn't safe at all since, it is using a central server to get the data from, that can be a cancer node, and give you false information. Not safe, just easy. |

Only complex keyloggers that take screenshots with every click can keylog the PIN entry on Inputs.io |

It is possible to run Armory while Bitcoin-Qt is running through Tor. |
