Just wondering…does anyone have experience with key logging software such as Sniperspy? Will avast recognize an attempt by such a program to install itself on a Windows 7-based PC?
Thanks for any intel you may have on this!
In the case of an install detection is difficult, but for securety reasons when already infected you can use an on-screen keyboard.
Click on Start → Go to All Programs → Click on Accessories → Select Accessibility ->Click on On-Screen Keyboard
An attempt to install the module is detected by avast as Win32 Trojan-gen (Other), be aware it can also come in the form of an e-mail attachment or socially engineered attachment saying that it is an important OS patch for which you have to have to disable your av software temporarely. Never do such a thing, patches do not come that way,
