Good Tip (Spoiler)

Well from the second act onwards there is monsters that look like mummies that when killed give of poison gas, If you stand still when the monster has been killed, then the gas dosn't affect you, let the gas disperce then carry on walking and you will be poison free.

If you have a low poison resistance then it helps to know this as it is annoying to keep having to waste a healing potion just because your poisoned.

Yeah you're right, standing still prevents poisoning, but what difference does it make? The poison cloud does naught damage (unless playing in hell with -100 poison res or equaly lousy position.)

Still the same trick helps if you're caught in a blizzard (Mephisto or zakarum sharmans). If someone casts blizzard on you (not a real playing sorc) just stand still and wait, then you'll recive naught damage (and blizzard really hurt's in hell diff unless you have good cold res)
