Key Logger – Invisible to the best in Anti-Spyware Industry

See Everything Then Type!
A new device has been introduced to the marketplace that is a huge danger to anyone who uses a PC that is not theirs. It is known as a key tracker and it sits between the keyboard and the PC. As can be seen in the pictures it is very discreet but is probably one of the most dangerous items of equipment to personal information that is readily available. These devices record every key that is pressed on the keyboard. Due to it's position (it sits between the keyboard and the PC) the information is logged by the tracker before the PC knows about it and as such is very difficult for the PC to detect. They are available in both USB and PS2 formats so pretty much any PC can be logged. The user puts the tracker in line, leaves it there for a set amount of time and then retrieves it. They can then download the data onto their own PC.

KILLER Features:
1. The 32K keystroke logger will store 32,000 keystrokes.
2. Record and save e-mail, instant messages, password recovery, internet addresses, chats, search terms and more.
3. Available in both USB and PS2 formats so pretty much any PC can be logged.
4. Due to it's position ,is very difficult for the PC to detect.
5. These trackers cost less than £30 and they are definitely out there already.

Advice:
If you intend to use a PC that is not yours (ie hotel business centre, internet café, airport etc) I would advise looking at the back of the PC to see if one of these trackers has been placed in line (scrambling under a desk is the better alternative to losing your email details). If you cannot get to see the back of the PC, I would suggest you don't use it for anything personal. If a tracker is there and you do not notice it, whoever placed it there (could be any user of that PC before you) will be able to recall all of your keystrokes - logins, passwords etc.

Google Adwords No More Safe

After Google Orkut Exploits, now it seems Google Adwords is facing some real anxious moments.
Recently Researchers at security software developer Exploit Prevention Labs have uncovered hard evidence that cybercriminals are using Google AdWords to infect unsuspecting users with malware.

Modus operandi is....

Advertisers pay Google for the sponsored links to appear following specific search queries. Clicking on one of the malicious links, though, takes the user to the real website – but along the way they are unknowingly redirected to www.smarttrack.org, which hosts a Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) exploit that attempts to install a backdoor keylogger.

Exploit Prevention Labs first learned of this new attack vector on April 10 when a user of the company's LinkScanner Pro safe surfing software ran a Google search on the phrase "how to start a business." The top-ranked sponsored search listing appeared to be from AllBusiness.com, a legitimate business, yet the hyperlink actually led to a site that attempted to install a password-stealing keylogger on the user's PC. LinkScanner Pro blocked the threat and automatically reported the discovery back to Exploit

Although Google has terminated this particular offending account, the discovery highlights problems facing all sponsored search vendors -- how to determine the legitimacy of any individual advertiser, and how to determine whether a redirected link is being used legitimately.


Now, Think THOUSAND times before clicking any of the links of Google Adwords, be'cas you don't want to get punched in the FACE.
