bitaddress.org
JavaScript Client-Side Bitcoin Wallet Generator
Now Bitcoin addresses and their corresponding private key can be conveniently generated in a web browser.
The bitaddress.org project provides an all-in-one HTML document with embedded JavaScript/Css/Images.
The JavaScript is readable not minified and contains no XMLHttpRequest's (no AJAX). The benefit of
this technique is you can load the JavaScript locally and trust that the JavaScript did not change
after being loaded.
Here is a link to the BitcoinTalk.org forum topic discussing this project:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=43496.0
Please send DONATIONS for this project to Bitcoin Address:

END USER NOTES:
1) To print QRCode in IE8 you must enable the "Print Background Colors and Images"
checkbox on the "Page Setup" screen.
2) For Bulk Wallet I recommended using Google Chrome, it's the fastest.
3) Requires IE8+, Firefox, Chrome or sufficient JavaScript support.
4) Mobile Safari only works with iPhone4 or newer devices.
Older devices timeout while executing JavaScript.
5) DO NOT use Opera Mini it renders JavaScript output server side, therefore they might
record the private key you generated.
