Just an addition tip - don't save your AO password in the launcher - as the file that stores the password is not even encrypted which makes it extremely easy to write software that sends your full logon info to a hacker.
Personally I stay far away from 3rd party utils like damage dumpers and bank/inventory listers (etc. etc.), and recommend everyone do the same if you worry about being hacked. Malicious code in one or several 3rd party apps for AO is the prime suspect in the case of the recent hackings.
