If your computer gets compromised, like in the situation you've posted, using a different wallet wont save you.

The story has a happy ending!
Got this from a dude called Mandrik at Blockchain:

You should be able to spend the funds at the affected address if you follow these steps:

-Log into your wallet from a computer via the Chrome browser
-Make sure the affected address is listed in the "Receive Money" section of your wallet. If you already archived it then click on the "Archive" tab. Click the blue arrow to the right of the address to unarchive it. The address should now be listed in the "Receive Money" tab again.
-Make sure you have at least one other address in the "Receive Money" section of your wallet that is NOT affected in the same way. If you need to create a new one click the green "New Address" button.
-Click "Send Money"
-Under the "TRANSACTION TYPE" column click on "Custom" to perform a custom send.
-Selected only the affected address in the "From" box.
-In the "To" field paste the unaffected address to send the funds to.
-In the "BTC" field add an amount to send. Do not put the entire balance of the address here. Make sure to leave at least 0.0001 btc free for the miners fee (next step).
- In the "Miners Fee" field include 0.0001 bitcoin.
- Below this you should see a "Change Address" drop down. Please select the unaffected address to send the change to.
-Click "Review Payment" and then send the transaction.

Once this is done be sure to archive the affected address and *NEVER* use it again to receive funds. Let me know if this works for you.

Thanks!

Yes, only a small amount but I got them back.
What I find annoying is that the first contact I had from the person called Jade told me my account had been compromised.
I got back to them and said I wasn't satisfied with the answer...... then this happens.

I never had this problem with blockchain but I don't want to wait until I do.

Right now all my btc is on blockchain wallets (don't worry it's less than 0.1 yet  Grin).

I know this is a dumb move so I want to change this habit before I regret it.

I use bc wallets because it's very simple, so here's my question.

What are the most simple secure wallets?

How can I store my btc in a USB flash drive or a piece of paper? And what do I have to do to spend it in a safe manner?

I'm also concerned about anonymity.  How do I keep my coins anonymous?

If I send from blockchain to the offline wallet through bitmixer.io is it enough? Or using the shared coin feature of blockchain is enough?
