spyware / pc keystroke recorders - frightening.

Being sneaky, I wanted to find out all the passwords of someone that uses my PC occasionally.

Installed a program called Spytech Spyagent V4.23. Does a whole heap of monitoring but I wanted it mainly to capture Keystrokes and thus Passwords.

Its simple to use and works like a charm.

Got me thinking though. In stealth mode it is not visible to the user at all. Does not show in the task mgr, or anywhere else. Once installed all data can be emailed to you if you desire. Just imagine, someone gets access to your PC whilst it is unattended. In less than 5 minutes to install and configure, its all over. Hot Copper login details!!, Online banking login details, Everything.

Anti Virus does not detect it. How do we protect ourselves from some assh0le doing this to us I wonder.(lol).
