Keylog!! Has It Happened To You?

[Mentor]

I'd have to dis-agree with you on one thing Mentor.

ZoneAlarm firewall prevents pop-ups and advertisements and harmful websites that are under your control.

It enables you to allow or deny that website from being seen or entering your computer.
That's why i recommended it.

zone alarm does have some exstra fetures, but zone alarm has many fetures related to a privacy sute, a firewall as in just a fire wall does not.
MOst of zone alarms priviy tools thogh are pretty basic and ill effective, reliying on them i think would be a bad idea.

Athogh zone alreams pop up blocking utilitys, only effect online and are still no effective agsit ones genrted intenaly, say by a pop up spawner.

also most outgoing spyware is far to safiscated to directly ocnnect to the net, its more likly that they will ither hide in anotehr program, or ad themevs as a browser help object avdoiding all scanning alltoger, not being able to be told appart form say IE.

a good spyware scanner, adaware / spybot are always a essental, webroot may be nice but its pretty slow at scanning and has no quick san option, plus unlike the other to it costs.

That's something i agree with ya.

Spy Bot, Ad-Aware, Webroot Spy Seeker.

I have them all and scan my computer every 2-3 days.
And if I think I've got a 'Bug'. Then i do it after everytime after i go on the Internet.

Norton Anti-Virus i don't find all that great, but i still have it.

ZoneAlarm is a pretty decent and has easy options. (I have that too)

You could say im abit over-reacting on safety with my computer. But i guess you can't over-react if you want your computer always clean.

Nope, I've never had a keylogger since I got my computer

If you have been infected with SpyWare or a keylogger as it is known on habbo then you should download it, or have it just in case. To download click here

This is what is promised:

Microsoft will provide customers with licensed copies of Windows with its new anti-spyware software for free. The pledge comes after the company had been testing its AntiSpyware application.
"Just as spyware is something that we have to nip down today, we have decided that all licensed Windows users should have that protection at no charge," Microsoft chairman Bill Gates said.
Typically, spyware generates pop-up ads or keeps track of people's Web surfing. A study published last October found that more than 80 percent of consumers had been infected with spyware.
Microsoft introduced the beta of its Windows AntiSpyware application last month.

Well i was keylogged once and all my furni had gone... hopefully this should make it all a bit more safer!!

It's nice to know that people are paying great attention to my Article. After all, it is very important, and if you do have a keylogger, then it is computer threatening, as well as it cud threaten computers around you when you send emails off or connect to the internet.
I'm glad that so many people liked it and that some people have added 'Rep'.

Don't think I've ever got so much Rep before.
