    All your keyloggers?? How many keyloggers do you keep on your PC ?!?

    This program is very good at finding any trojans and keyloggers and it's free. However I put it on one PC and it drove me mad, wanting to scan absolutely everything all the time and refusing to accept my telling it that certain programs were OK. But it was thorough, I'll give it that - and if you have a keylogger on your system I'm certain it would find it.

    I agree with Moira, when it comes to keyloggers, diallers and the like Emsisoft's A-Squared takes some beating.

    I also find that Pest Patrol is good at finding stuff the more conventional anti-malwares don't.

    The one that I would add is EWIDO. It finds all sorts of things It is a 28 day trial with the interactive protection, after that you can use it "on demand" and manually update the pattern files for free.

    Please do not forget a physical inspection............physical keyloggers are generally not detected by software solutions

    Well I think the way to go is to first scan the computer with a good antivirus/spyware solution and then use a good firewall and allow only only tructed softwares to access the net. Also, its always better to see the list of running programs. If it not shown by the taskmgr, What's Running is a great software to be used.

    Whats running will help you the actual pathname of the process so that a process doesnt fool a user by running a process in the name of svchost.exe .

    And Nihil was quite humorous about the physical keyloggers......(the kind I belong to) ....
