How to Use the Ardamax KeyLogger
Ardamax Keylogger is a program that captures keystrokes and stores them in an encrypted log file. It is often used as a security tool to monitor kids or employees that are using the computer. It can also be used to remotely check if there is anyone accessing the computer without permission. In addition to storing logs for the administrator to see, the logs can also be sent to an email address, uploaded via FTP delivery, or delivered to another computer through a network connection. The Ardamax software must be configured properly to ensure that the keylogger stays invisible and is only accessible by you if you wish to monitor other people’s keystrokes without their knowledge.

Tips & Warnings
Make sure that any virus scanners installed in the computer are disabled before launching the remote installer. The virus scanner may flag the keylogger as a virus due to its stealthy anti-privacy features.
Launching the saved installer will immediately install the keylogger invisibly without prompt. Make sure that you properly set the password and hotkey settings or else you will have a hard time removing it.
Set a good password and hotkey that only you can remember. Use the default hotkey (Ctrl+Shift+Alt+H) so you can refer to the manual in case you forget the hotkey.
