How To be Safe Against hacking

Dear e*pvpers
In this thread i won't talk about anti viruses,anti spy wares,etc...
I am talking about how to make a good password,secret answer,email verification in general account information to be safe...
1.A good password
We know that there are some people who uses the "brute force search".This method trys many passwords until it finds out your exactly one.

For Example:

1:
Our real password consists of 9 numbers = 547861206
The brute-force tool is installed on a "Core 2 Extreme QX6600-2400 x4,Windows Vista home Premium" computer.This computer can check -38421.9 keys/second-.

Combinations = letter number to the power of password-length
Our number of letters is 10 because we can get numbers from 0 - 9.
Our password-length is 9,because our password consists of 9 numbers.

So : 10^9 = 1,000,000,000
1,000,000,000 / 38421.9
= 26,026.82 seconds

Our password is not safe!Hackers can get it in 26 seconds.

lower case letters = 26 different letters
capital letters = 26 different letters
numbers = 10 different letters

Now,we use a password which consists of 9 letters(numbers + lower case letters)

Our password = jhrz86qsd

36^9 = 1.015599567 x 10^14

1.015599567 x 10^14 / 38421.9 = 2,643,283,041 seconds
= 734245.3 hours = 30593.55 days

This password is safe.

So,please choose a password which consists of letters and numbers.It should
be 9+ long.

2:

Do not take passwords which is your e-mail,brithday,parents name or a word from a dictonary.And the most important thing is...don't share private information on the internet or to persons you do not know very well.
Hackers will search for information on the internet first,before hacking you.First they will try some combination with your private information.
For example: name+birthday..so "thomas1965".
If it fails..they will try a dictionary attack.They uses a text file which consists of million from words.If it fails..They will use the brute force technique.This could lasts long,if your password consists of numbers+letters.

perfect password: letters+numbers ; not information about yourself and not a word you can find in a dictionary.

2. Prevent Hack - Silkroad

Login with your account on [link].
Then edit your First name and Last name.
Just write something in the textbox ;-)
For Example : uuigbdgbaisat

Then..the most important thing...: e-mail
Just use one e-mail for silkroad.Just create one e-mail and do not use it anymore.If the e-mail account got deleted,well..that's the best :DDD

Your security answer should be long ( 12 letters + numbers ).It's better when you write a wrong answer :-)
So hackers cannot hack your account.Just by keylogging and trojans.


If you need questions or want to ask me about other hack topics,just ask me

and please don't use the pass or secret answer examples i used just make one like them

I. I got hacked!

Well the best would be to reinstall your operating system(e.g. windows)
If you can't, then delete all your files related to Silkroad(bots,clients,tools..)


II. Software
