I am using a lot of things on line like e-mail, games and some important stuff like on line paying or access to my bank account. With all this talk about hackers and jacking I got scared a little bit. Is this a myth or someone can really steal your ID and Password? What is your opinion about this?

Hacking and stealing data is not done like they present it in the movies. Largest percent of stolen IDs, password and other personal data is from people who believed everything they have been told on internet. Never, never, never give any personal data to anyone. No one has a right to ask you for that over internet. If you have strong password (mix of lower and uppercase letters, special symbols and numbers) there is no chance someone can crack it or steal it. Also, always us updated antivirus, antispyware and firewall and you are secure as you can be.
