Use a different password for every site. Password Safe or KeePass stores them encrypted. Never use your pets name.

This reminds me of a similar situation I had. The solution was patience.

Set up PGP with GnuPG and your email client. End-to-end encrypted email is possible and everyone should use it.

Tor for anonymity, VPN for privacy from your ISP. Neither is perfect alone. Use both for maximum protection.

I am bookmarking, printing, AND saving this to a floppy. Too good to lose.
