Highly recommend Electrum (http://electrum.org/) because of the ability to restore a wallet with a 12 word seed. Although a paper wallet is always the most secure.

I use coinbase.com to store 5% of my BTC (for spending and trading for $ as needed), and a brain wallet for my life savings. Be very careful with brain wallet if you decide to go that route, you really need to do your homework and choose a passphrase that has never been written down anywhere, in any book, on any forum, or ever even spoken to anyone on Earth. It must be something ONLY YOU could possibly know, and you must know it BY HEART, forwards and backwards, inside and out.

Only Bitcoin-QT is secure.
Connect every month to network and it's all.

Not unless you keep it in an encrypted drive.

As said paper wallets are the safest and best for long term storage.
For a semi hot wallet something like Armory or Electrum where you can sign transactions offline so the private keys never touch the internet.
For just a general hot wallet I'd recommend Multibit.

If you want to move them somewhere secure, use an offline or paper wallet. I use a cheap Raspberry Pi with the Raspian OS and Electrum wallet.
Coinbase is probably fine, but you are necessarily trusting a third party with your bitcoins. If they disappear, get careless or get hacked, your bitcoins are gone.
Blockchain.info is supposed to be as safe as online gets, but it's still online.
Mycelium on Andriod has been rock solid for me (as a hot wallet).

Got all my coins just sitting in my Cryptsy account and want to move them to somewhere secure.
Like the look of Coinbase after researching.
Anyone recommend or comment on this ??
Thanks
