The real threat these days isn't so much keyloggers as it is phishing and social engineering. These attacks typically involve a malicious person sending a link to a fake site enticing users to click it and use their credentials. For example, a link to a new armory, or a beta signup.
These sites are crafted in such a way that they look authentic, but once the credentials are entered, they are logged on the hacker's server and your account security becomes compromised. Anti-virus software cannot protect you from such an attack. People must become more conscientious about the sites they visit and which of these they can trust (e.g. it's always a better idea to type in the full url than to follow links blindly). Changing your password often does help, but authenticators are indeed a more secure option.
P.S. For every week that goes by without a Shadow Priest video, a Marmot is sacrificed.
P.P.S. brb, getting a Fuze beverage now...
