Use 2 factor authentication. It exists for a reason.

Hi.

I disagree with the need for this.
Keyloggers register all things you type in. So there is no difference wether you type it here on the website or in the login screen for the game. if you have a keylogger, you got an issue.

Both a webbrowser as the game allows you to remember password. this is only advisable if you are the only one having access to your computer. It is a myth that the remember password of a browser is more or less safe than the remember password option in the game.

Fearing that you have a keylogger is a good thing, but like being said, you should also fear it when you log into the game.

There are some very good ways to prevent keyloggers.
The first and most important way is to have a good and secure firewall and anti virus. Do a full system scan often and make sure you are up to date. There are many free products you can use for this. I strongly advice to use free products. The reason is that many paid solutions use a lot of system resources, while not being safer. But most off all is that online security should be free as a principle.

The second is to check your list of processes from time to time and make you familiar what each of them does. Almost all processes can be googled. Keep in mind that those often say this is insecure unless you are using product x or product y.

e.g. Awesomium_process.exe as a process is dangerous on most computers. Unless you are using GW2. this process is an integral part of GW2. So if you have gw2 on your computer and up and running it is ok to see the process. If you don’t ow gw2 or don’t have the game running you might in problems.

Hope this helps to get your fears away.
