Authenticator is not essential. Blizzard just knows people are stupid.
•Don't get phished and don't go to gold buying sites
•Don't download anything untrusted or go to random websites
•Use script/ad/Flash/Java blocking
•Use a real time malware blocker and scan your computer at least monthly as well w/ multiple scanners
•Keep everything up to date (Flash, Windows, AV, Java is you use it, Browser)
•And the most important thing is use a different password on every site and don't use your main email address on every site
You definitely don't need an authenticator anymore than any other site. 99.9% of the time an account is compromised it is the user's fault.
