Keyloggers and Bears an Tigers, Oh My!
Author
I think my girlfriend is cheating on me, so I want to implement a keylogger to run silently and record all keyboard input. Of course, I could probably just ask her, but that would be too tootin'' honest. I''d rather slither around behind her back like the snake I am.
With a keylogger I''ll be able to track her input and if she''s up to no good.
I could buy one, and I see they make software and hardware keylogger''s alike. But I''m broke and creative, so making my own keylogging program seems like the perfect resolution.
I''ve Googled, I''ve MSN''d. I''ve even asked Jeeves. But no one has anything to say about keyloggers in terms of writing them. Here are my criteria:
(1) The program will run on my computer (which she uses all the time especially when I''m not home and she needs to get lots of "work" done.
(2) The program must be as undetectable as can be while running (no minimizable windows, etc.)
(3) No matter what she''s doing, surfing the web i.e. my IE or making spread sheets, I want it to capture all keyboard input. This is the core part that I just plain out do not understand how to resolve.
Anyways, besides booing me offstage and throwing cabbage and other random vegetables at me, has anybody got a useful idea for how I might solve this? Or am I just dreaming? (I''m allergic to cabbage.)

No. Maybe you should explain your concerns to her rather than spying on her. You don't seem to have a lot of respect for her, so maybe she would be better off if she was seeing someone else.

Writing a keylogger is trivial. Your suggestion, however, is absolutely horrible. People deserve their right to privacy. How would you like it if somebody had been logging and disseminating everything you had done on your computer for the past year?
I strongly discourage anybody from responding to this with solutions. With all due respect (none) hopefully she is cheating on you, she deserves somebody better.

So, who''s cheating on whom here ?
Look into the window creation flags, I think there is a WM_HIDDEN or what ever! Then just use c# and say on key press text.txt += keypress

I agree with krez, but if you really want to know you can make a basic keylogger using GetAsyncKeyState.
