How to stop keyloggers?

Hello,

I need a good software tool to stop keyloggers. I searched on Google and found an overwhelming offer, some free and some paid; but I am interested in your personal suggestions, something that you use and are satisfied with! Smile Also many anti spyware tools that I've found are basing on a signature database, and might not work with custom home made keyloggers or spware. Anyone knows a tool that blocks keyloggers and spyware without using a signature database?

I think

Keyloggers don't want to be blocked, It's kinda against their nature...

Looks handy..

Looks handy. It's like another one of those Avast Cleaner or McAfee Stingers, but scans in 10 seconds.

Anyone know how effective it is?

46 MB file though Sad

Thanks. Is it just

Thanks. Is it just conversion to PAF or something more?
EDIT: I downloaded it. It's not PAF compatible (Thumbs up. I make portable apps in exactly the same format as you do.)and has some reg keys - so I guess it does.
I think the launcher would be significantly smaller when compiled with VC6. Could you please share it's sources?
EDIT3:
Now I see it's AutoIt. So I won't compile it with VC6 Sad
EDIT2:
A minor bug. It doesn't work correctly when you run 2 instances Blum
Normally it doesn't happen but accidentally can.
EDIT4:
You should not leave the tray icon for the launcher itself. Sb. may close it. When I run it for the first time, I thought it's Malware Remover's icon and I did Sad
EDIT5:
You can make it significantly smaller. Just delete *.?BK from DATA directory.
EDIT6:
I wrote a script to do this deletion automatically.

Start.exe is not a good name because it's a batch command, which I needed here.
To use the script you have to rename it to _Start.exe.
EDIT7:
With UPXed EMCO, it's "only" 26.9 MB Smile

Re: How to stop keyloggers?

It sounds like an excelent product, and I also found Anti Keylogger Shield http://www.amictools.com/ v-anti_keylogger_shield.html which block any keyloggers, known or unknown. I will still check a few other before I decide which one I will use on the long term!
