I have another question, I have a Chromebook which was only ever connected to the internet once (actually I tried to install Electrum on it but was unable to as it doesn't have Windows). That's the only time it was ever online. If I downloaded bitaddress to it and then went offline (forever!), would it be safe to make more addresses on it? Thanks.

IMO it's safe enough. BTW, you can run Linux application on Chromebook. So you could Electrum AppImage file and then run it on your ChromeBook, assuming your chromebook doesn't use ARM chip.

So my question is.... is the Silk browser that Amazon Fire uses OK for this purpose? (just wondering because I know somebody mentioned IE8 not being suitable. Thanks.

From quick google search, Silk browser is based on Chromium, where Google Chrome is also based on Chromium. So theoretically there shouldn't be any problem.

Thank you. I presume that even if there was a virus or something on the Chromebook from the one and only time it was used, it wouldn't be able to steal my private keys if I go offline to create them and am never online again on that device?
