That's why I paid the $5 for a paypal security device. It generates a 6 digit code for which, in addition to paypal's standard login details you must enter the 6 digit code on your device. Also bank of America offers the same thing for their cards for $20. RIP OFFS. But better than having you account hacked. BOA also offers a nice video explaining more about the card so if you use them i suggest spending 5 minutes of your time. [I AM NOT AFFILIATED WITH EITHER COMPANIES]

Look here to see what's it like (not mine) found w/ google images. Using search query (paypal security device) no ().

I also use the Key Scrambler plugin for firefox, AV software, FireWall, WOT plugin & Compete plugin (both offer site trust ratings). And most importantly COMMON SENSE. I also use anti-spware and noscript plugin. All plugins are for firefox.

Have questions use Google and read up about these plugins.
