How can you tell if someone has put keystroke software or spyware on your computer- obviously without using the softwares to find them.
Where would the programs usually be located in the computer and how would you find them?
Does anyone know the most recently used programs for this kind of info theft?
And how do you know if someone is actually in your computer, having hacked in?

if you had a keylogger or spyware, anti-spyware would detect it. simply run a scan and delete everything found. if yuo don't use any antispyware, try spybot, it is reliable and it's free. here's a download:

To see if someone has been browsing through your things, look at the last item/date opened.
You can check the programs installed on your machine to see if there is a key-log there, but it might not say as much. Check out some computer help sites for a list of common key log programs.

some keyloggers are not visable in control panel add/remove
so a software would be needed to see if there is one

get update, reboot and do a full scan
spybot also is a good choice

it truly is not your duty or society's duty to "strive against" them, yet you could nullify their efforts by conserving your self with up to this point anti-spyware and anti-virus courses. attempt Avast, Ewido, Spybot, ad-conscious, secret agent Sweeper and HijackThis.
