Keylogger

• A firewall commonly does not provide Keylogger protection, but can alert you if a program is trying to send information out to the Internet. By stopping this action you can prevent a thief from retrieving a log, and be alerted to the possible presence of a Keylogger.

• Other methods to ‘confuse’ a Keylogger include typing extra letters or numbers when entering secure information, then highlighting the characters that do not belong and entering a legitimate character to replace them. You can also use a browser with a form-filler function that will keep usernames and passwords securely on your system, and fill them in automatically when you enter a site, without forcing you to use the mouse or keyboard. There are also programs that scan for Keyloggers, but they can detect legitimate processes as well, making it difficult for the average person to make real use of these tools.
