Hey

thanks u for all that pouring replies

See its all upto u....u want to be secure .......its better to be clever

i remember my fav quote abt security

The big lie of computer security is that security improves by imposing complex passwords on users. In real life, people write down anything they can't remember. Security is increased by designing for the way humans actually behave. (Jakob Nielsen)

well.... in that case ...don't u think those back sniffers can record ur passwords even when u are typing it on a physical keyboard

can anyone tell me what is back sniffing( someone sniffing behind u )???

nice you posted this here.

i v been using this stuff for 4-5 years. it jus occurred to me once while logging into my bank site, i always use this for bank sites only.
there are several methods by which your a/c can be compromised and this trick is not a comprehensive security tool.
this trick will easily fool simple keyloggers whose sole aim is to keep a tab on ur key strokes.

back sniifers are those ppl like u who just pry on other peoples movements and keep watching them for some reason

Not necessarily. They would not access my office pc and even if they have it most keyloggers would be detected by the antivirus. I would be having control on what is happening on the system I am using but I cannot control the back sniffers.

LOLLZ .. Really really good one ..

 

[dheeraj_kumar]

I have an idea about controlling back sniffers... How about using some sort of password manager and using it on sites?

But yeah, how to prevent access to that password manager itself is a question... obviously a master password would be highly secure but highly vulnerable to back sniffers...

Password Managers secured by Biometrics is the key...

lol...man I was just joking I felt u were just annoying me by refering to my previous post about back sniffers.....sorry if it hurt u...

Well ... I thought we were talking about shared PCs...

why struggle so much dude, use the software called Key scrambler and this is also available as a plugin to Firefox
and also most of the latest keylogger can also capture screenshots for every mouse click, so its better to use a software called Anti-keylogger Private keyboard, that doesnt let the keylogger capture the screenshots

 

[gopi_vbboy]

@pagalnokia

i agree...but this trick is for those who need performance....remember every plugin/program u add slows ur browser.....and we don't login all the time....n who can believe these plugins....possibly they might be sniffer too...i mean not all ppl know to download plugin form trusted source...


@all thanks for reply
actually back sniffer are like network data monitors....so better have ur data sent encrypted..thats the only sol.

 

[anarchist]

I don't know why but I am just chuckling at this one.

@above

thanks.....that can xplain better than my way of xplanation

nice work..

There are two methods.

1)Use windows virtual keyboard for typing user names and passwords.
2)Create a text file,and in that just type all the letters from A to Z,and numbers from 0 to 9.And after that for entering username and password,just copy paste each letter one by one.
