Default Protect Your Passwords

As you know keyloggers are becoming more and more common. And people often get affected by them. For this reason you should search for an encrypter that will encrypt your passwords. There are plenty if you search for them!

Further I would suggest you to use anti rootkit softwares which would eliminate most type of keylogging and spy softwares before you surf confidential sites. AVG free anti root kit will do the job.

How does an encrypter work, though? Does it change my password regularly? Maybe I don't understand the concept.

if you are suspicious that you are affected by a keylogger then use backspace often while typing passwords, most of the keyloggers doesnt read backspaces & they tend to malfunction, I heard this somewhere.
