I was just pointing out that no matter what you do you could always do more.

I like having an easy-to-use backup, and I like to restore to a fresh install periodically. Part of it is I like to mess with computers and figure out how to do things. What I do is legitmate. What you do is legitmate.

The most important thing, as you pointed out, is to minimize your vulnerability, which you seem to be doing just fine.

One of the things I do to minimize my vulnerability is to never use a cell phone for anything involving a critical login to email or banking or online purchases. I do everything from my computer, and I never type in a password, I always copy and paste from KeePass.

Yeah I have a smart phone, but my eyes (macular degeneration) prevent me from using it for anything other than calling, which I even use that function rarely. Prefer the landline. 8>)

I was also just giving the age of my computer. Probably 5 years old now. 8>)
