    Have just read an unnerving article about something called 'EBlaster'
    which is sold at http://www.spectorsoft.com/ this program can be
    loaded onto your computer and can track all your keystrokes: all your
    emails from any email address, incoming and outgoing + send a copy of
    it all to another person. Presumeably that would include passwords
    too! Someone would have to get this software onto your machine in the
    first place, but that's not difficult if they have physical access to
    it - and (apparently) it's undetectable - if you look in your
    files/programs list you won't find it. does anyone know how you might
    (a) prevent this being put on the first place, and (b)detect it if
    it's already there? I've now been totally put off setting up an
    internet bank account!

    Thanks.
    Dulcie
