    Default How to use Keylogger to monitor and log the activity on your PC

    About Keyloggers
    The term ‘keylogger’ itself is neutral, and the word describes the program’s function. Most sources define a keylogger as a software program designed to secretly monitor and log all keystrokes. This definition is not altogether correct, since a keylogger doesn’t have to be software – it can also be a device. Keylogging devices are much rarer than keylogging software, but it is important to keep their existence in mind when thinking about information security.
    Legitimate programs may have a keylogging function which can be used to call certain program functions using “hotkeys,” or to toggle between keyboard layouts. There is a lot of legitimate software which is designed to allow administrators to track what employees do throughout the day, or to allow users to track the activity of third parties on their computers. However, the ethical boundary between justified monitoring and espionage is a fine line. Legitimate software is often used deliberately to steal confidential user information such as passwords.
    What keylogger software could do
    Most modern keyloggers are considered to be legitimate software or hardware and are sold on the open market. Developers and vendors offer a long list of cases in which it would be legal and appropriate to use keyloggers, including:
    Parental control: parents can track what their children do on the Internet, and can opt to be notified if there are any attempts to access websites containing adult or otherwise inappropriate content;
    I think this is the main and important function of Keylogger. As far as we know that the importance of the Internet is enormous in this day and age and as well as being a centre for learning and communication, it is also a centre for entertainment. However, unchecked usage of the Internet, especially by children, can lead to dire consequences and many families have found out the hard way. Keylogger software provides the ultimate solution for computer surveillance, something that any home should have. However, choosing the right program is a decision not to be taken lightly.

    There are lots of freeware keyloggers available. But use them at your own risk and only for lawful purposes.
