Yea.... no If he will steal your password, he will get your "code" too, using "virtual keypad" doesn't change anything.

Wrong. You are not typing the code. A number pad appears on the client, you click on the numbers on your mouse to enter the pin. Keyloggers won't be able to read stuff from mouse clicking.
WTS basic knownledge on how this virtual keypad works and how "hard" it will be read the buttons you've clicked. And no, it doesn't have to take screenshots.

unless your some computer programer at microsoft who can write one of these your sounding like a thief more by the minute.
a key loggers is one thing , it simply writes down every key you type and then at some time sends it to a certain ip address or waits to be picked up( for hard ware versions). the amount of programing involved in creating a program that can both interface with another program and then read at spesific times what some one is cliking in exact cordanates is generaly beyond most programers time and money. they implemented something like this in runescape and as far as i know it has yet to be broken.
Or simply a guy who is a programmer and works a lot with security on the other end.
And it is very easy to break for someone who got basic idea of what is he doing, sure it's more than keylogged but stealing stuff from mmos brings a lot of cash, enought to hire good programmers.

Originally by: Mag's I would prefer something like this idea posted some time ago.
In-game stuff is too open for abuse, I'd rather they never got in there at all.
It all only gives your fake feeling of security, if you will keep downloading lesbians.exe or access important stuff from net-caffee, you will get hacked.

A hardware based authenticator removes the chance of being hacked, there's no fake feeling about it.
Edit: Plus if you read the thread, it's already been put forward by the CSM. Linkage
Wanna bet ?

Nothing is 100%, is that horse you're on a tall one?
No, it's that i can break your unhackable account with same lesbians.exe, will take me maybe 1-2 hours of extra work.
