Game Over Zeus - MaryN - 4 June 2014
I guess this comes under security. I'm getting slightly paranoid after reading about Game Over Zeus and all the associated problems, so I'm carrying out all sorts of scans. I've tried to cut down the number of passwords I need to use, but it is still higher than I would like. Does anyone on the Forum use a password manager?

Personally I think (or is that hope?) they are hyping this up far more than is needed, just make sure your anti-virus software etc is all up to date and make sure you also check for malware and do a weekly scan.
If you are wanting to up your password security, how about using a fingerprint scanner?

Just write down passwords on a sheet of paper, e.g. Email = ChickenRun44, Bank = Winston9Hedge SUK = SUK-1T
That way you can remember your passwords.
