@ Sandeep, the fact that it is detected by antiviruses (in my case both AVG and PC-Cilin) detected it, makes it totally useless……its sorta like a ninja who moves about in the open (and wearing a transparent mask)

@ TheRealDonQuixote, is it possible to pair up a keylogger and a rootkit, to somehow disable the antivirus, perhaps prevent the antivirus engines from loading into system memory(or prevent realtime scanning) maybe , and then running the keylogger to execute upon the next system restart (as at present, the antivirus engine will be already running and will probably detect it when it executes……atleast tht’s wht happens on the PC I work on….the executable is detected in few cases unless it is executed!!)

What say??

Other than that (detectable by anti virus), very nice piece of software with extremely cool GUI. very very easy to use…

@ Daniel
Most keyloggers are easily found by anti-vir soft, cause they are very small, not much code, and thusly very very easy to identify. Any anti-vir using heristics will find pretty much any keylogger file that is an executable. Now as far as rootkits… That’s a different story.

We use Sophos antivirus where I work, and this is picked up by it. I don’t know about other antivirus products, but I’m sure they do to.
