Keylogger Recommendations

DennisColes · 20 Feb 2012 at 17:42

Hi.

I'm looking to install a keylogger that is able to log key strokes and maybe even take screenshots at timed intervals.

I used one a few years ago that did just that but i cannot remember the name of the program.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

KGB Logger does this i think, it even has a setting so it can email all the results for you so you dont even need access to the pc to see whats been going on.

KGB is excellent.

Can someone provide me a link to the correct version on their website?

Much appreciated.

what are you planning on using it for and why?

I hope you own the computer you plan to install this on as otherwise it's illegal!

even if you do own the computer, do you not also have to tell everyone that uses the pc that its installed?

I can't think of a single legitimate reason for this other than the prevention of crime.

Yeah I think it might be with regards to the computer misuse act?!?

If you have got to the point where you distrust someone enough that your going to install a keylogger then I'd suggest it's a lost cause and wouldn't risk getting in significant trouble!!

This is going to be installed on my own laptop in case lost or stolen.

I understand your concern..even I was doing something illegal....i'm sure you've done things that are illegal before. You're probably torrenting something right this minute.

I believe one of my friends parents has something similar installed on the family computer.
Catholic family though, super tight. You know how it is :rolleyes:

You don't want a keylogger, you want some form of anti-theft software. There are quite a few out there now, but this is the only one i've used:

Even so, piracy is very different to invasion of privacy. It's better to clarify such things.
