Are there keyloggers which don't show up in wintop or msconfig. And if
so are there freeware anti-keylogger programs to find them.

Thanks.

Theres a free prog here
http://dewasoft.com/privacy/kldetector.htm
(does not work on 95 or 98 though according to spec) , that says it can
detect keyloggers.I havent used it (using w98) so cant comment on it
effectiveness.Other sources (just google for these) like spybot , adaware ,
and escan virus tool utility (uses kav engine) have good detection on
keyloggers too.

He would stay up late every night and wonder if there was a dog.

I second Microworlds escan
(http://www.mwti.net/antivirus/free_utilities.asp). Very good at
detecting not just keyloggers but viruses and even adware.
It does give you a nag screen when you exit though.
 
LOL

Guess I won't be using them, then

Well, you can tell AA to ignore them, that is what I did when I was
checking on my son (16 Y/O finally found adult web sites :)). I
installed the keylogger on his machine, updated AA, told it to ignore
the one I installed and went from there.

Just a thought.

My testing of AA with one keylogger failed. I think they only detect those
that sites put on your computer.

I can assure you that is not the case. I installed 3 seperate
keyloggers on my snadbox and AA found them all. I just told it to
ignore them and...it did.
