I think Ive found what looks like a key logger on a computer at work.....on the PS2 port on the keyboard.

Ive brought it home, but dont know how to access it.....

From a bit of googling, it seems you can open them in word/notepad etc, in the editor. But how do you access the editor in notepad?

It will probably have a password on, so I probably wont be able to access it, but worth a try. It was on the PC I use at work by the way, so someone is checking up on us  :drama:

knighty

photo of it so we can see which one it is ?





p.s. I wonder why theyre watching you like that.... a key logger isnt the most obvious thing to spy on you with....
(compared to something software based)

chrisdicko

Yeah, Im a bit annoyed to be honest. I think it could have been due to an ex-employee, who just sat on the internet all day doing nothing......he has been sacked since, and if they ask where its gone, Ill deny any knowledge of course! The *IT* guys arent IT guys, they are accountants who know nothing, lol.

This is what appears to be it:

And from that I went to the makers website, but cannot get much further

well you didnt know it was there did you?  The fact someone has stolen it means they cant really ask you where it is?  

Possibly someone in the company has been leaking info?

You probably wont be able to access the info on it, as they usually have a password before you can download the info.

Best plan would be to smash it into tiny pieces, and leave it next to the computer.

knighty

well it looks identical to this one....

which probably means its made in china etc.. and theres a dozen different companies selling them with there own name on ?

looks like you need a ps2 to usb adaptor (a special one?) to be able to access it.... which would make sense to me as Ive never seen a ps2 memory stick before ?


zpyder

Find a way to replace it with an identical looking device but one filled up with something funny/creepy?

like "All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy...All work and no play makes Chris a dull boy..."

Over and over again...

They are accessed by opening a blank txt document and pressing a certain key combination.  Usually something like KBD

chrisdicko

Thanks for the replies guys  :bowdown:

To be honest if Im going to have to buy something extra, or use a password which would be impossible to get, I may just go the route Soopha has suggested!! Good idea Zpyder as well, would make them think!!!

Cypher, tried that KBD, but obviously no luck!

Rivkid

Cheeky f**kers. Fair play your calmer than me - if they did that at my place Id go sparko at them. No problem with them checking what Im doing but secret keyloggers on the pc is taking the piss.
Career, Wife, Mortgage... my sig was better when it listed guitars and PC's and stuff!

chrisdicko

It is annoying. I know who it will have been, the finance director who has to get in on everything!  Might buy one myself and put one on his computer to see what he gets up to, lol

Just put that one on his, then put it back on yours at a later date, then when he asks you why you have been to hornyhousewives.com say that you didnt but must have been while it was attached to his computer ;)

chrisdicko

lol, good idea!

I was looking at it today, and plugged it back in to my pc, and it fell apart in my hand! Quality bit of kit :rofl:

I am interested to know what is going on in regard to how it got there?
- Dodgy member of staff?
- The cleaner actually being a spy? (lol0
- Your told your boss?

Etc..

zpyder

Another thing to do would be to hand it to the boss saying you found this keylogger on your computer and you are concerned as either someone is spying on the company or someone is spying on individuals which is illegal and is an invasion of privacy etc and could be quite serious if found out by other people.

I dont know whether the use of keyloggers without peoples permission is illegal, but itd be a good way of scaring the boss without coming across as having something to hide.
