How to Detect Keyloggers With Panda

How to Detect Keyloggers With Panda thumbnail
Panda conducts an online scan to detect keyloggers.

Keyloggers are nasty bits of malicious software ("malware") that infect your computer and record your keystrokes. They transmit everything you type to companies, hackers or other people with less than pure intentions. They can steal your password, your credit card information and anything else you type on your keyboard. Luckily, Panda Security's online scan will detect keyloggers for you and tell you how to get rid of them.
