Key Logger Detector

This small utility tries to detect active key loggers on the system.

To detect the key loggers, this utility simulates 130'000 keystrokes and counts the number of context switches of all running processes. Because the system notifies a key logger for every key, the corresponding process has a lot of context switches during this test.

Note:

• Not all processes that get notified about every keystroke do something bad with the information.
• It's possible for key loggers to develop certain countermeasures against this detection method.

For every detected process, the number of bytes per key that is written to disk or network will be displayed. The higher the number is, the more likely it is that the keys are recorded.

Please send me feedback about the practical use of this utility. (See Contact)
