Key Loggers are one of the most dangerous threat that computer users face these days. A key logger can be hardware and software based. It was specifically designed to record key strokes on a computer system. This can be usernames, passwords, credit card information, account data, business secrets and pretty much everything else that is being added to the computer by use of the computer keyboard. Hardware key loggers require physical access to the computer system while software key loggers usually transmit their data over the Internet.
Most security software programs detect and prevent keyloggers that are running on the computer system. The Anti-Keylogger Tester has been designed to test seven different methods of recording keystrokes on a computer system. A good security software should notice all seven methods and prevent access of the program. A bad one might catch only a few or none at all.
The portable software program works by clicking on one of the seven buttons in the main interface. Each button activates a different key logging method on the system. The security software should display a warning message once the buttons are pressed but at the latest when the user changes the focus to another window or application in the operating system.
All seven methods can be tested in a few minutes on a computer system. As mentioned earlier a good security software should spot all seven different key logging methods. It might be time to do some research for another one if it does not catch all or any of the key loggers.

Tool seems quite outdated, which is risk for security-related issues. Especially with how much rootkits had progressed.
Useful but I won’t feel too safe relying on positive result from it.
This seems to be quite useful tool, bu if I want to download this program, I also want to disable my anti-virus program. It won’t allow me download it.
Then how can I try this tool?
@JK
That confirms that your antivirus is not too shabby on recognizing keyloggers. :)
Code used for leak testing is close (if not identical) to what real malware actually uses so security software often detects leak tests as possible malware.
@Rarst, then just think how much worse you’d feel if your security software didn’t catch all of these.
@One Step Beyond
Ehm, sure it’s obvious that if test is failed then there are holes! :)
I was trying to say that outdated tool that shows no holes is dangerous because it may make you think you are secure when you are actually not.
In this case negative result is conclusive, but positive isn’t.
Yup I’m running Trend Micro and it didn’t allow me to download it either.
