I leap has discoverd a sloution for keyloggers instead of typing the password number when a website asks you for it, you type it on a diffrent computer save it on a usb flash drive and paste the pass on where it asks for it. genius aren't i Lol

IM sory im young and stupid but would this work

I like the idea BUT maybe a 'safer' solution is to keep keylogger infections OFF one's computer to start with

it is , dare I suggest, far easier to keep clean than to GET clean once you are infected

(and a PS; if you have thought OF this 'solution'...so to will they have already thought of a way around it )

How could the average ID10T PC user know if a Key-logger was present on his / her PC in the first place irrespective of what operating system they have.
For me I'm using Windows ME

Simple, use a firewall like Online Armor that detects keyloggers, OA has a free version. http://www.tallemu.com. Then use a reliable anti-virus solution like Kaspersky or NOD32 and you're all set.

Its genius; but you can't always paste passwords.

The easiest way is to download a spyware remover such as Spyware Doctor and remove it, instead of playing around with it risking precious information.

Nor can you assume that the only function of a keylogger is to read keystrokes. Keylogger has pretty much become a generic term for 'usage monitoring software'.

would that work because i need it lol the reason i have avg free but it detects it but refuses to delete the keylogger errr t

DO you have a real keylogger on there you DO need real help with?

Thats what I've been wondering

I guess it is not practical to be doing this all the time on your personal computer, otherwise life would be too complicated!

But I like the idea, which I think could be used if your are typing passwords on other computers, and you feel the system is unsecure. Let's say for example, at the Internet Cafe, College or at the Library. You simply insert the USB and paste the password from there. No trouble. You could save all your passwords there I guess with an obscure description so that only you can understand...

But someone might wonder what if you lose the USB... isn't that a security problem. No, because what would a password do without the username it is associated with?! Or maybe you could use encryption for added security...

Thelastleap, you better copyright the idea before someone else steals it!

Thanks raw for that link. That program looks excellent!

@thelast leap

HAVE you gotten an infection on there but are hesitant to seek full help on removing it

if you HAVE a keylogger on there or suspect that you do , you do need to do something about it and not just chose to ignore it

What's a keylogger?
