A computer keylogger is a program that will track each and every keystroke that is pushed on a computer’s keyboard. Why would anyone want this kind of software on their computer? For business related work, a keylogger can be an excellent way to catch company secrets being leaked out of their office and headquarters via email. At libraries and schools, keyloggers are a purposefully used to keep children safe and on task with what they should be using those computers for. At homes, keyloggers can track who kids are chatting with online and what they are talking about. Couples suspicious of each other cheating on one another have even used keyloggers in some instances.

No matter the case, choosing the best keylogger isn’t a difficult process, but it is one that you should look into a bit before simply purchasing any type of software you see on the shelf. Most keyloggers should advertise that they are hidden from all users except those with access to its control panel, and this is essential if you don’t want your employees or children knowing that you are reading their keylogs. You’ll also want to make sure that it includes software that easily decrypts the keylogs for reading them at later times.

There are many more options that come included in some keylogging programs that others don’t have. Some software may give you an option to have emails sent to a specific email with current chat and keylogs. This is excellent for working moms and dads interested in what they’re children are doing while mom and dad aren’t home. Keyloggers don’t necessarily have to be used for “spying” on chats though. Some are used to pick up and block typed keywords, while others can be used to compare employee’s productivity and speed in typing.

Whatever the case may be that you need a keylogger for, just be prepared to do a little research. Shopping online and reading reviews on favorite keylogging software will be your best bet on getting the perfect keylog programs for your computer.

Keylogging application is specially designed software that tracks just what is happening on a computer and its interaction with a keyboard. While generally used for security reasons, keyloggers have been known to be used for improper reasons rather than what they should be used for.  

Keyloggers in the workplace and office are very effective time management and efficiency tools. They are also viable for keeping the security and secrets of a company within its own walls. Keyloggers can be used to track an employee’s typing speed. It can count the words per minute being typed by that employee, and whether or not it is up to par or under the average typing speed of others working in that workplace. It can also be used to track exactly what is being typed and what program it is being typed in. If an employee is secretly chatting on instant messaging software or sending emails outside of work walls, an employer will be able to identify this.

However, many employees claim this type of software should be considered a form of privacy invasion. The problem with the software is that it is always tracking keystrokes, whether or not an employee is on the clock. It may also store personal passwords which are easily accessed by those with administrative privileges. On top of this, because it can track whether an employee is typing up to speed with others around him it can cause stress. It has also been a main cause of carpal tunnel syndrome within the workplace.

Keyloggers used outside the workplace are controversial to some. Places like internet cafes have reportedly used invisible keyloggers, saving personal data of clients that come to use their computers, and then using that data for their own benefit.

For those with children, keylogging software can track who they are talking to, and what they are talking about through instant messages. This may be vital in protecting your child against attacks from strangers.

It can be a benefit in some instances, but like anything with benefits, keyloggers come with disadvantages, as well. In the end, it is up to the employer, parent, coffee shop owner, or anyone else who thinks they need it, to decide what they will use keylogging software for.

With these days technology, finding out what you child is doing online, which sites he visited, who’s talking with on messenger, it’s no more a difficult option.
Of course, there are people that might say that parents can be more effective in protecting their children by spending time discussing and educating them about the dangers of sharing information online with strangers. I totally agree that family members should talk in detail about privacy and the web. But I also agree that this is a very difficult thing to achieve, and there are plenty of cases when the children forgets about the education he/she received especially when a new colleague comes into their school and that colleague makes him/her feel much appreciated if she changes.

Placing the computer in the living area where you can easily see the screen so you’ll have some idea about activities that children are doing on the computer including the websites they are visiting frequently. This could be another solution, but don’t forget that the main advice for the parents is “stay involved with your children’s internet activity without looking over their shoulder!” they will always find a moment when you are not around to access everything they want. Talking about people under 18, this is the age when you form your opinions about social issues, human rights, and religion, so, don’t let your children be influenced by others.

Chat messenger software

There is also a program out there which is dedicated to the recording of chat conversations. With all the criminal acts being committed online I don’t blame programmers for going out and creating a software application designed for recording chat messages. These tools are very powerful and can track many conversations from Yahoo, MSN, Google, ICQ, and more. The reports from software like this is sent to your email and also daily. The files can be hotkey and password set so that nobody can access it other then you.

These programs will definitely help you become a more involved parent with what your kids do online. Kids have a mind of their own and often times won’t be able to tell the difference online between someone their age or someone much older then them. Parents need to explain the problems kids face online so that this way they are aware of it.

Keyloggers are used everyday by people, some with good intentions and some with bad intentions. Keyloggers can be utilized in such a way though that it isn’t for bad intentions and they are helpful in a lot of circumstances. Here is a small list of why keyloggers are important and what they are good for.      

1. Keystroke Recording. By adding a keylogger onto your computer you are able to track all the keystrokes typed on the keyboard. This is one of the reasons intruders try uploading keyloggers onto computers because then they can access the passwords of the users. 

2. Applications. Keyloggers have the power to be able to read all the applications/programs that are being run by the computer. If you’re trying to see what your children are using on the computer while you are away, then this is a great method of doing so. 

3. Documents Monitoring. You can view all recently created and/or changed files and folders. This is great for catching your children or teenagers trying to hide files on the computer that they don’t want you to see.  

4. Track Internet Usage Keyloggers can monitor all the websites visited and also keeps a log of them in chronological order which is great for anyone who thinks their children are viewing content they shouldn’t be.  

5. Chat Monitoring Whether it be Aim, MSN, ICQ, or any of the other web messengers you will be able to track who your children are talking to as well as if they are talking to strangers or not. With the world the way it is now you should use this feature everyday to make sure your child is safe online. 

Stealthy keyloggers are well worth the investment as you will have the complete control of your computer. It is more ideal if you have children/teenagers using the internet or computer to install a keylogger though. You also have to be careful not to download one in a file because, as you can see, they track a lot of personal information which you wouldn’t want to get in the wrong hands. 

Lots of people do not know that there is a significant difference between Spyware and Spy Software. These two notions are frequently misunderstood and considered to be one and a single concept. In order to understand the difference between them you will need first to learn a few things about each one.  This is what I was thinking when I started this article.Once you read a little information on the topic, is quite simple. The main difference is that Spyware can be uploaded to a computer through means of files, folders, images, IP address, etc. Spy Software has to be downloaded from the computers root to be utilized on that computer. 

Spyware is the stuff you will usually find in files and internet downloads, is the nasty keyloggers, and applications that steal your data. These applications are downloaded to your computer most times without you being aware of it happening. If this happens it usually means that an intruder has successfully gained control over your usernames, account numbers and passwords. This can end up costing you a lot of money so it’s important you to have the latest anti-virus software on your computer and always running. 

Spy Software has to be downloaded onto the root of the computer and can’t be downloaded from a different access point. Lots of people use software like this to check up on their children and also to see what their spouses are up to online. You can download a keylogger and have it hidden within the computer pretty easily and within minutes usually. This is why they are so popular among people, even kids nowadays are using them to try and gain passwords to certain online games, etc. 

Spyware is like a terrible virus in my opinion and I frankly hate all applications that do such things. I have read some stories that have been remarkably unbelievable and people have lost everything from malicious acts like this.  

On the other side I read abut people using spy software, and how helpful was this kind of applications for them. Parents that saved their child from the hands of an internet theft, business owners monitoring their employees in order to increase the productivity, and even about suspicious spouse recording the activity of his partner.  

Similar situations made the bases of Stealth Keylogger development, a computer monitoring Spy Software you need to have in order to take control of your computer.

The multi-recording features built into the product, its stealth capabilities and the well designed structure of the application are the ones that made this keystroke recorder software so appreciated.  

Stealth Keylogger is an advanced keystroke tracker software. Why advanced?

It also reveals information about the person (user account) who typed the keystrokes and the applications they were typed in.

This is a simple way to obtain information about who typed the keystrokes, when exactly (day/hour/minute), what keystrokes were typed and, very important, in which application. The recorded information can be related to the internet activity – when an URL was typed or a term was searched, chat conversations, documents created/modified and e-mails sent / received. 

The reports generated are sent to a specified e-mail address and are received in a comprehensible format. More, you can choose the frequency of the keystroke tracking reports you want to receive.

Like we have promised to our customers, last week, a new release of our monitoring software solution Stealth Keylogger was released.

Having in mind the end user requests, the new version tries to fill up the goals that had been missed in the prior versions. 

The new features have a great importance and represent important points of view for any monitoring application. To briefly recap what is new in this version I would start saying that a new section was created, in order to build custom aggregated reports for a specified time period.

Regarding screenshots, the possibility to take snapshots with the websites visited was added to the active window/full screen snapshots. Once with this, the possibility to adjust the screenshot quality was incorporated.

On the other side, important enhancements were made for the settings option. Previously, the generated reports were sent to e-mail, or via FTP. But now, to easy use and receive the information, other methods are available:  to copy logs to LAN and to a portable device. The reports are saved on a computer from the local network, or simply on a memory card, PDA etc.

To release the end user of the concern that old logs will occupy too much space on the disk, our developers enabled Stealth Keylogger to delete the logs itself, if the size specified by user has been exceed. The new version can also monitor the total inactive time of the user in cause registering him as being “idle”.                                                

The privacy of our customers it’s the most important, that’s why we keep improving our products, hoping to please as many of our customers requires.
