I quickly searched on the internet that it could be (I do not understand much about the computer ! ) and I understand that a keylogger is a spyware that records seized from keyboard. Please help.

    When you want to be prudent with caution, always consider the possible consequences of disregarding safety warnings .In fact, and this latest example is a further proof ( as there have been precedents ) , there is always a risk to ignore a warning (even minimal) or a legitimate program while allowing anything to do and anything. In the case that concerns you , you have a warning called " PDM.Keylogger "on something " legitimate " but which can be exploited for " insensitive "if you see what I mean.

    In purpose and, simply put, the API system are involved in security and system integrity as a rule , they will miss that which is executable by their intermediary.From there , the core operating system is isolated from user programs and each program is "more or less " isolated from other programs. So when there is a glitch with a program, the consequences for the machine are reduced because the seed in question can not affect the operating system and undermine its integrity.

    You must know that the term refers to a " keylogger " , that is to say a program that monitors and records everything typed on the keyboard.
    Generally, this is a typical behavior of some software " spyware "or " malware "which when installed on a machine , capable of detecting the keystroke of everything for cash today by thugs from the Web ( not to mention the mafia and criminals), namely:
    - No bank account
    - No credit card
    - No Social Security
    - login and password to login
    - email addresses
    - addresses
    - etc. ...

    The best way to protect yourself is vigilance :
    * Do not use software whose provenance is questionable
    * Be careful when you connect to a computer that does not belong to you ! If it is a free computer , examine the configuration quickly , before you connect to websites requesting your passwordTo see if users have gone before you and it is possible or not for a normal user to install software. If in doubt do not connect to secure sites for which there is an issue ( online banking, ... ).

    To avoid any risk you can use a keyboard visual example of the windows:
    Go to start menu of windows and then execute and copy this : %SystemRoot% \ System32 \ osk.exe click OK . You now have a visual keyboard that you can " fool " the keylogger , just click on the button as a keyboard.
