Say I wanted my account to to be 100% Secure

So for the first time, AVG caught a virus at a WoW site and made it go away. Scary stuff. I really don't want to jeopardize my account. So what if I got a brand-new computer and did nothing with it but play WoW? No email, no net surfing, no installations, nothing? I'm not rich by any means, but people have spent more on hobbies. Would that be 100% safe?
When trying to Auction "Huge Spotted Feltail", the big offhand fish, I consistently receive the error "Cannot Auction Items with Spent Charges" as far as I know fish don't have charges.

Hi Shadowgrasp,

Nothing is really 100% safe. You can still get hit by a generic trojan or worm if you don't update Windows or get hit by a zero-day exploit. Getting a new computer just to play a game isn't cost effective. If you'd like, you could try installing a virtual machine (try Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 or a VMWare solution) and use that to surf the web.
