A friend suspects he has a keylogger on his computer. If so, it seems
important to find out who put it there. I would imagine that if one can
somehow probe it, they would find an ip address that shows them where the
information is going. For some reason, he thinks its not important. However,
since his PC is pretty fresh, he wants to reformat the hard drive and
re-install the OS (XP). My guess is that would not always remove the
keylogger. Comments?
Is there a way to find the keylogger, and remove it w/o taking the measures
above?
I'm discounting the possibility that there's a h/w keylogger attached.
