does anyone know a good way to protect my software from key loggers (except from a screen keyboard, that my users tend to complain) ? Mauricio Ritter - Brazil Sonorking now: 100.13560 MRitter :jig: I've gone sending to outer space, to find another race :jig:
Yes, add support to single sign on NT authentication. And, yes, you'll have to explain to the user that leaving open a session within his machine is plain stupid. Q261186 - Computer Randomly Plays Classical Music

If you're concerned only about password enter, I thought on some hack (the method is probably used somewhere, so the credit probably isn't mine). For each letter generate a random letter, and then in a spin-edit like fashion using mouse/up-down keys allow the user to scroll to the correct letter. No keylogger can pass this, if you're random. Similar to slot machine.

One thing I have seen - generate a 2 or 3 digit random numberwhich the user has to key in. Not perfect, but can trip up key loggers. Elaine (fluffy tigress emoticon) Would you like to meet my teddy bear ?

It mentions only software key-loggers, for about 20$ you can pick up a hardware extension logger or for 50$ an internal keyboard logger. Which apparently are quite effective. :(( Regardz Colin J Davies

interesting idea... but the problem is that the password would be visible at the screen. Mauricio Ritter - Brazil Sonorking now: 100.13560 MRitter :jig: I've gone sending to outer space, to find another race :jig:

Yep, but it's not a keylogger:) It's a screengabber:) There is a limit what a hack can solve. Use a smartcard.

This is an interesting problem... You could draw your keyboard on the screen and have the user use the mouse to enter the password (or you could draw a numeric keypad, to keep things simple). You could even randomize the keys so logging all mouse movements wouldn't get you anywhere. Even if they take periodic screenshots, they'd only see a keypad. You could still have someone secretly install GotoMyPC, but I don't know what you could do against that, except maybe sound!
