Yes!
Save your password in a different way.

If you are paranoid, use the on-screen keyboard, on site keyboard, partial copy paste combination.

If your password is say lknfmpweoinkkpoe  (only an eg.)
You will have this one: nfmpweoinkkpolke, etc.
Randomize, tips, stuff.  Grin

Don't do this for everything. Else, you will go crazy.  Grin

I am cool with a safemonked database on Keepass (http://keepass.info/).
Passwords are insterted with the auto-type two channel obfuscation feature + last 6 digits of each password insterted manually through Neo Safe Keys v3 (http://www.aplin.com.au/) + 2fa where allowed.
Bear principle: you don't need to be able to outrun an angry bear to escape; you only have to outrun the guy next to you.

If you want to be 100% save from keyloggers, use the screen keyboard. I don't think they capture your screen...
Some viruses can capture your screen.

You can use a hardware tool like yubikey as an extra layer of protection.

Or other 2-factor authentication using your phone.

Kickstarter Everykey

or

I would be more worried about Google, etc, especially if you use Chrome.

Use chromium then.  But thats not gonna help against keyloggers, to make that only a remote possibility, switch to an opensource OS.

And soon you'll find out that them on-screen keyboard programs had the key-loggers built in. How can you not trust one but trust the other?

You don't need to copy and paste your password at once.
You can scrumble it copying different pieces in random order.

Malware can just grab the contents of the form when you submit.

Even Screen-keyboards are keylogged now. take a look over at skidforums and some of the keyloggers there log it. kind of annoying.
If you are super paranoid do your banking and stuff in TAILS

Short answer = No.
Anything is breakable before release. As things evolve everything evolves. There is and always will be a way around anything, as long as people are in charge.

I would be more worried about Google, etc, especially if you use Chrome. Look at what the big companies are doing in the cookie world. That is what you need to watch out for.
Just so you all know- Google considers any computer to be fair game to harvest info 24hrs a day if you install any google product
