Keylogger tracks all your keyboard inputs and sends it to the person that made it. It's used for obtaining your logins (mail, paypay account and such). Only way to remove it is to find where it is and use some antivirus software or just reinstall your system.
Would like to add that some keyloggers bind themself with system files and make their copies in different directories/partitions and will not be removed even after reinstalling OS. You should get a copy of good Antivirus and also trying installing a firewall to see which files are trying to access internet and then look for the suspicious one. After you have pointed out then dont directly delete it, first make some research on google to findout its complete removal solution...... After you are 100% sure its gone then change all of your account passwords and secret questions/answers.
Keylogger is dangerous. It will send all your keyboard inputs to somewhere. Be careful about your passwords.
Also something important to think about if you ever need to log in to a secure place on someone else's computer. Lots of people run them on company computers to track porn viewing, or just to be nosey...
Use Kaspersky virtual keyboards when you type your login and password to any websites or messenger. By doing so you will leave no traces of your physical keyboards that you type.
Keylogger is a program on the computer that records everything you type. All your screen names and passwords and anything you type on here, in word, in chat rooms, records all infomration you type when you fill out online credit card apps, or any online application for that matter. Its usually what parents use to keep an eye on what their kids are doing on the computer. Or what a jealous wife/hubby uses to spy on their spouce. Get Malwarebytes and Combofix on a clean flash drive from a clean computer. Rename both programs to something else. Boot into safe mode. install and run both from there.

I believe that TrendMicro's HijackThis is one of the best if not just the best software to deal with such kind of problems.
I got it solved I had to erase the hard drive and i reinstalled norton, i was attacked by some trojans for the next couple of days but they were blocked and removed. My norton had run out and I delayed in reinstalling it guess I learned my lesson lol. I got all my accounts and domains back thank goodness.
I do a complete PC reset every month these days and have important files on an external back up. Can't be to careful.
