1> What I would like to know is, if when I generated my wallet, a seed was created for me to be able to restore my wallet at a later point in time when I want to bring the wallet online again, how could my seed, and therefore my key be attacked??? There is nothing in the blockchain since there has never been any transactions. I don't understand what the author is really talking about? And even if I have conducted transactions to the wallet addresses, how could the presence of those public addresses in the blockchain be used to attack my wallet?

2> Is my above example a brain wallet, or is it something different??

1 - Your seed can be attacked if it is created on a compromised computer, stolen or not really randomly created. Public addresses cannot be used in any attack vector (unless we're talking about deanonymisation).

2 - What example? Cheesy
