How do I know if I have a keystroke logger?

Hi,

Ive been reading about keystroke loggers and consequently I want to protect my self from such software being installed on my computer. Does anyone know of a legitimate software programme that will detect and delete a keylogger?

I have read reviews on anti-keylogger, most folks are saying stay clear as its not that great and wont let you uninstall.

What software is recommened that is not a keylogger, spyware itself?

I run XP service pack 2, p4

Re: How do I know if I have a keystroke logger?

Keyloggers are not the most common of spyware, adware is, which as it says in the name, serves "ads" (usually targetted at users). Keyloggers are becoming more common though and they are extremely nasty. Most antivirus programs will now capture dangerous keylogging programs and of course the antispyware software removes them. Have a look at this thread with information about protecting yourself, all of the software is spyware free and free!
