Spyware Windows Keylogger Information
Name: Windows Keylogger Category: Keylogger Date: 2004-07-06 Author: Christian Walter Dangerous: Yes

Windows Keylogger is Keylogger - spyware.
Key Logger. Runs silently, logs typed-in key sequences. You should remove it from your system as soon as possible.

Windows Keylogger description by Christian Walter:

Vendor: ´At 1st start ´key logger.exe´. This is the configuration utility for the real Key logger. Determine a logfile & go to the options page . There you can activate the emailer & specify all it is necessary data like the smtp host & the file size limit for the logfile. When the logfile reaches this size the key logger tries to send it through email. If theres no internet connection yet the key logger saves the logfile temporarily. Also, you can activate a password protection for the configuration utility. That means only users with this password are able to start this config utility & to make any changes in the configuration. Then go to the scheduler page if you want the Key logger to log only at specific times or if you wanna enable the self destruct option. That means that after a specific time the key logger will uninstall itself without any messages or interaction with the user. Please note that this requires a Windows Reboot so if you select a self destruct date of, let´s say, 20. July the last file (and with it the last trace of the key logger) is deleted with the next Windows restart which may be the 22. July or even later. On the registration/installation page you can register Windows Key logger (more on this topic further on this page) or you can deinstall Windows Key logger completely.´
