This is amazing,

the secure web wallet
https://ethereumwallet.org
has just relayed its 1500th transaction.

So is this 100% sure? I don't know should I just go with this online wallet or should I mess around with the clients. Clients do seem very complicated. I manage to get to work GETH on one of my computers, but on the second I didn't manage, I keep getting an error.

I don't know should I waste time on the clients or should I just use this online wallet.

Can somebody with more experience please confirm.

Thanks!

Hi,

the wallet should be just as secure as any other console client out there.
None of your secrets (be it password or private key) is ever transmitted over the internet as all cryptographic operations take place in the browser.

The code is available freely on github to verify.
Plus, it is based on the blockchain.info wallet which makes it even more robust. You can be sure that it has been penetration tested already by all those who want to make a quick buck.

If you have any other questions just ask.
