Does anyone know about keylogging?

Question

Someone or something has very recently attempted to record my keystrokes. Fortunately their attempt was disrupted. However, I would like to know how they were able to access my computer in the first place. Might anyone have some ideas? Also, why might one antispyware program catch this, however, another will not. Is there a difference in types of spyware programs?

Hmmm...Your questions is quite tricky...For the why one antispyware program might catch this,another will not.It all actually depends on what anti-malware programs you use.If you use a infamous anti-malware scanner,you will normally found out that it does not work too well as the virus database is too small.

Spyware programs has a lot of types.One tracks your shopping or internet usage information and send it back to third party companies,some promise you free p**n but actually dials to p**n site,causing a bomb of your phone bill at the end of the month,some downloads rogue anti-spyware programs(programs that need you to buy the full version to remove imaginery malwares),keyloggers,etc.

Answer 3

Keylogger - spyware.

No Antispyware program works 100% therefore use a layer approach to spyware - that's to say use more than one Antispyware program, this is safe & recommended.

Answer 4

Anytime you download anything your risk getting a virus. Actually extremely sophisticated viruses can get into your system so long as your connected to the internet (though this is unlikely). I would recommend super anti spyware (I know it sounds and looks really fake but it works).

Normally, someone enters a disk into your computer and then they get a website that lists.so ething and pressed "allow" this company  to install whatever, i.e. an active x thing.
