    Most good keyloggers are untraceable if they have been installed by someone with admin rights to your machine..

    Good keylogers are hard to be traced

    Don't use suspect computers

    Can spysweeper identify the keylogger if it is hidden or active?

    Btw, i tried kaspersky and found nothing. But i still have doubt that my most of the programs like irfanview, notepad++ and photoshop are sometimes loading dead slow,

    Thanks for your helpful reply, Btw, you have any idea why some of my applications are loading slow?

    Regards,

    well, to be honest, i was using norton. I was happy with it. but due to memory hog i uninstalled it and currently i am using nod32. HOwever. i tried kaspersky online for scanning and some freeware from that too.

    But i feel i need a perfect antikeylogger and keylogger tracer.

    Also it should have better reviews from end users. so only we can believe whether a antikeylogger itself is a spyware or not.

    Thanks guys,

    Regards,

    Yes, You are right. Generally in forums or in any web 2 community sites, i have not seen people talking about mcafee.

    I see all the people here tell about avg, avast, antivir, panda, kaspersky, nod32 , norton only.

    What my humble belief is everyone depend a particular scanner until some virus get into it.

    I know my friend was using avg first and enjoying it for a while. But since avg could not find a trojan and some js virus inside html, he uninstaled it.

    Now he still uses free one Avast.

    But until i was using Norton, no virus could really get into my system. I was really happy with that. Only thing i hate about norton is the memory hog. Ohter than that, i am ok with it.

    But now i use nod only. With some recommendation i am using SD (search and destroy spyware).
