A keylogger is a tool that can record and report on a computer user’s activity as they interact with a computer. The name is a short version of keystroke logger, and one of the main ways keyloggers keep track of you is by recording what you type as you type. The range of potential information the snooper can acquire by this method is truly vast, from passwords and banking information to private correspondence. Keylogging software will occasionally send the information to whoever is controlling it.”]
