There's always encryption, but it's not really needed.

I personally use a HIPS program. If you would like to look into them, they are quite advanced, they stop specialized keyloggers and such:

I personally prefer System Safety Monitor, but they're all extremely good.

antiTROJAN
{size:18px}[/size:016c30f453]:D Hi Dutch :

At a minimum should add an antiTROJAN program; since you failed
to mention your Operating System, to be safe I recommend
"a-squared Free", available at www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/

Yeah, anti-trojans are a nice supplement to antiviruses, but lately, AV's have actually better detection of trojans, from all the tests I've seen. But hey, yeah, A-squared free is good for scanning, but no on-access sadly.
