How do you tell if a program has been installed that
captures keystrokes? Win XP PRo SP2, Norton Antivirus,
Zone Alarm Pro, Spy Sweeper are installed with automatic
updates. I have received several emails with imbedded
links that may contain programs to cpature keystrokes

Thanks
 
Bob,

The only real way you can tell is if you keep an eye on the processes that
run on the startup of the machine, and any strange activity passing through
your firewall. In theory this kind of Trojan software "should" get picked
up by the Anti-Virus package. But as I said just watch you startup
applications both through the registry and through MSconfig.exe

The following site is a massive list of valid and invalid processes that
may start when Windows starts, which will help you determin valid processes.
