The keyfile would be stored on the stick as well. True, but you better have alot of files on the stick so they can't figure out which one you used! Better yet, do private things in private!

If a keylogger is running as well and the encrypted files are accessed the "hacker" will have everything he needs. Remember that some usb devices don't have leds, especially those small ones that are plugged into a port on the back.. If you want 100% security don't use them at computers that you can't check. Buy a second one with unimportant data only and use that one on public terminals. tash that is true of course.

Though if someone has a number of large files on their usb drive, they might notice the led on it being in use more than it should be. And the thing about truecrypt or any encryption; if someones willing to copy all your files, they can easily run a keylogger with it.. The encryption becomes useless(assuming you accessed the encrypted files.. if you don't type your password, you're still safe) Interesting..
