Description:

KeyloggerLite records all keystrokes made during the session. It is invisible to all users, except to the one who installed the program. The logged keystokes can be stored in a previously created directory and are therefore not easy to be found. Those logfiles can be sent to a specified email-address. There is an option to generate an autorun entry so that the program starts any time the computer is started. It comes as evaluation copy for seven days, after this period users have to purchase a license.
