Delete the keylogger, it is likely malware.
Most of the times it is even illegal to use too.
Just use the logging options of the OS to track what happens.

Or he could add it to exclusions if am not mistaken?

Darth, you’re right.
There are in fact two exclusion lists: one in program settings, for the on-demand scanning.
And other in Standard Shield settings, for the on-access protection (residents).
Second, it’s necessary to put the complete mask to the exclusions, i.e. something like
c:\program files\perfect keylogger lite*
