You may be wondering ‘Why a Anti-Keylogger?’. Hmm! actually thats a stupid question to ask. Any ways the answer to this is quite simple – ‘because your personal data is not safe’. People do many things to increase the security of their computer. They install the best anti virus programs, install strong firewalls and even extra security softwares like anti-spywares or anti-adwares.
But they forget one of the most important security pitfalls, Keyloggers. Keyloggers are alien (not extra-terrestrial) programs which basically record all the letters, words or sentences you type. These programs can easily slip through the scanners of anti virus and other security programs.You type your username and password on Yahoo or Gmail, this program reads everything you write and send the data to the person who made the Keylogger. Now think of the situation when that person get login information for your Bank Accounts, PayPal and other highly secure and personal information. What should you do?
Use a Anti-Keylogger. And the best solution out there is, Key Scrambler. Key Scrambler is anti-keylogger which I have been using for quite sometime. Key Scrambler is very reliable and easy to install defense towards keyloggers. This anti-keylogger fools the keylogger programs. It acts as a special protective layer between keyloggers and your keyboard inputs. Whenever you type something, Key Scrambler scrambles what you have written and replaces your typed letter with random letters. Key Scrambler make the Keyloggers read this random letters and not the actual letters. For example, if you have typed ‘Apple’ then the Keylogger would read it as ’6tHI#’.Thus your typed information is safe. Below is a video on Key Scrambler tested against anti-keylogger tester.
Key Scrambler is available in three licenses Personal, Professional and Premium. Personal edition is free and support Internet Explorer, Firefox and Flock. Professional and Premium editions adds support for more browsers and programs like Email clients, Messengers, Password Managers, Test Editors etc. Pro version supports protects some 80 odd programs and cost 29.99$ while Premium version supports protects 110 programs and costs 44.99$. If you need protection for many programs then you will need to buy the pro or premium versions but I think for most of us Personal version will be sufficient. You can read more about the difference between the versions on the Product page.
Key Scrambler is a windows only program. It runs under Windows 2000, 2003, XP, or Vista (32-bit and 64-bit). The file size is just 1.2 MB. I have tested it myself against an anti-keylogger testing program and it was easily able to pass the test. You should give it a try and increase you security. I advice you to read their press release, where you can easily see how many good reviews this program has got. Go and download the Key Scrambler Personal Version.

woah! i am not that much aware of this one… there is really something that could protect my log in details.
Ya! Its important these days when security of your personal data is at greater risk.
Amateurs mostly use keyloggers to hack Email and other internet accounts. It is always good to stay safe from these attacks rather than repent over the consequences. Thanks for the Tip!
