Me, extremely long password with caps, normal chars, special chars and numbers. Also a verified email. Aside from that I only use steam on my own pc and parents laptops, and I never type it anywhere else than in steam itself. The the chances of being ****ed are pretty small I'd like to think.
If people persist in putting in their actual first school, town of birth, pet etc in the password reminders then more fool them.
Aboutt 18 months ago, there was some guy on the Major Nelson Podcast who was the head of security for Xbox live. He said some very simple steps to keep the hackers at bay would be to put your first pet as your school or town of birth as your favourite colour etc and have a password with upper case lower case numbers and symbols and you, your data and your investment into your games should be relatively safe
I'm not gonna sign this thread as I don't want to tempt fate, but I have more than one account and have had for years, none have yet been compromised. I never put my steam details into a computer/website that I don't trust and apart from steam itself, I trust nowhere with my steam account info.
