What's the difference between a keylogger program and a spyware program?
- The above definitions are basicly correct. Keylogger keeps track of key strokes. But Adware tracks where you have been on the net. Spyware can track ANYTHING it's designed to "spy" on. Using spyware a hacker can get your p words and then control and install keyloggers, or do anything they what with your computer and data. PS: a keylogger saves keystrokes directly so they can get your credit card numbers even if your on a secure site. You need anti - virus, Spyware, and firewall protection. I use all of the following Free software with Windows XP SP2 and Internet Explorer with MSN toolbar and the pop - up blocker turned on and have never had a single problem with my computer sense Microsoft came out with SP2. knock on wood. And be sure to keep Windows and the following software Updated The best Anti - virus is: AVG Anti - Virus Free Edition. grisoft.com The Best Spyware defense is: SpyBot Search and Destroy safer - networking.org / en / index.html < - English version AND: AdAware SE lavasoft.com AND Spyware Blaster javacoolsoftware.info / kb / The best Firewall besides the one that comes with Windows is: Zone Alarm zonelabs.com / store / content / co. or just zonelabs.com and select the FREE version. These are all FREE and are all that are required. There is no reason to pay for this kind of software, except to give a donation to the writers if you can. ALL the above programs are recommended and should be run on a regular basis. With some the free versions they must be run manually. The best way to avoid getting any Malware virus, Trojan's, spyware, etc is to practice safe com. Microsoft and many others have countless articles on the subject of safe com. something I think should be taught in schools for further information on computer safety. all.net / journal / 50 / cybercop.html
- Lots of info here
- Keylogger : A computer program that captures the keystrokes of a computer user and stores them. Modern keyloggers can store additional information, such as images of the user?s screen. Most malicious keyloggers send this data to a third party remotely such as via email Spyware : Any software that covertly gathers user information through the user's Internet connection without his or her knowledge, usually for advertising purposes. Spyware applications are typically bundled as a hidden component of freeware or shareware programs that can be downloaded from the Internet. Once installed, the spyware monitors user activity on the Internet and transmits that information in the background to someone else. you get several softwares for detection and removal of spyware's and keylogger

- a keylogger is something that keeps tracks of the keys that you press on the keyboard, which means they can see your p words, username and such. a spyware program is usually a program that keeps track of the websites you visit, links that you c. You need anti - spyware to find and remove them. try spybot search & destroy or ad - aware. both are free. be careful though about other free anti - spyware, some of them are actually spyware themselves! Good Luck!
- I am not a hundred percent sure but I think a keylogger program actually records the keys you type, so they can try to determine your p word and break into your computer. A spyware program just records information about what websites you visit and stuff like that. You can get Spybot Search and Destroy and Ad - Aware to get rid of spyware, I am not sure if they also can detect and remove keylogger programs
