Keystroke logger

[Keith]

I found a file called etwr.txt that has logged all key strokes the
past month. I know it has something to do with AOL Instant messenger.
I was able to read all my son's instant messages since November. Plus
email and BANK stuff. HELP!!

Thanks

Keith

Keith,

Run these malware cleaners:

1. Ad-Aware

2. SpyBot S&D
http://www.safer-networking.org

3. CWShredder

Update 1 & 2 before running a scan.

Clean-up Windows Startup:

Then, run a full system virus scan with fully updated definitions. Try Trend
Micro's Sysclean package (free), it's capable of eliminating keyloggers,
trojans etc.
