thanks
There is another way in which you can get robbed.
Thanks a lot for the help, I had a rat on my computer before and they attempted to take my btc but my wallet was secure so it was cool.
Thanks for the information and tips...I am just in the process of sorting out a wallet so I found this thread fascinating.
thx =)
As a so-called newbie, I'd like to say thanks for putting time into writing this.
Here's what I've done.
I'm using a mac. I have created an 128bit AES encrypted dmg file of 4Gb. I've put inside all my bitcoin folder and symlinked it to my bitcoin app folder into 'Applications'.
Everytime I need to do a transaction, I mount the dmg and running the bitcoin-bt app from the encrypted folder. I know this can be a bit slow at times; but I don't mind. As an extra measure I've also encrypted my wallet.dat file, just in case.
Cheers.

Wow this really opened my eyes. Thanks a big help.
Thanks for info
I'm not sure if it's already been mentioned in these 33 pages of posts (sorry I was lazy and didn't read it through) but wouldn't the most secure wallet on creation be the one that's put on a USB stick (encrypted or not) then shoved in a bank safe deposit box.
Nothing beats physical security offered by the brick & mortar people that have been securely holding stuff for decades.

This is a very good idea
Just wanted to say "Thank you" for taking the time to make this.
As you've pointed out, it's no means 100% but every bit helps.
I'm going to implement this type of system.
