KeePass: Copy/Paste spy loggers

KeePass is a great piece. But should I be worried of possibility of Spy loggers which might record whole clipbord activities?
If yes is there a tip to help?

Check out the KeePass

Check out the KeePass website. The owner explains what he does to make it difficult for loggers, as well as an additional setting you can enable for each account to make it even more difficult. He does say that's it's not immpossible for a keylogger to be written to defeat his app, but that he hasn't found one yet.

Nothing's certain in life. Smile

it always depends on where u

it always depends on where u are and what kind of system.
a keylogger is not a clipboard logger.
for windows i didnt see a keylogger since 3 release of windows ago, but for linux
its not so difficult to patch the kernel that every key hit on the keyboard is logged in ascii in a txt file.
but when u use c&p first u dont use the hardware keys, and second, when u use windows he dont save the copied information, like (k)glipper for example in linux.

offtopic:
most important and very dangerous, much more than what u say it passwort saving in the firefox in netcafe
Noobs which dont understand much about pc klick "password saving" in netcafe. and many netcafe dont erase the personal data after a login session.
so i already very open saw very many passwords saved in firefox.
this people dont understand about privacy and passwords. in netcafe passwort saving option should be disabled.

ontopic:
i think c&p is quite save, even he "forgot" the password after 10 sec.

solution for extremly paranoia variation :

u make the password readable, than u change it a littlebit, copy it in the asteriks-box and change it there again.

then no keylogger or c&p logger can logg anything right Smile
