Re: keystroke logging

From: "Steven L Umbach" <n9rou@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

| Yes a keyboard logger could capture every keystroke you make and thus would
| have information from documents that are never saved as a file. Keyboard
| loggers can be hard to detect. Antivirus scanners may not look for a
| keyboard logger but many spyware programs do. In particular I would scan
| with AdAware SE, Spybot Search and Destroy, and Ewido being sure to use the
| latest definitions for anything you scan with. Your virus scanner should
| also be configured to scan any email attachment you receive. Many I know
| scan daily for spyware. --- Steve

The major player anti virus vendors do very well at Keylogging Trojans.

McAfee lists hundreds of Keyloggers and their respective variants.
