The on screen keyboard countermeasure can easily be subverted by hooking the osk.exe process, and then intercepting the virtual key codes.

At least you can bypass hardware keyloggers.. though, these ain’t very common. Perhaps Martin, you could elaborate on some functions of the AKLog software anti-keylogger sometime ?

i disagree with you. acctually screen keyboards are very useful.
in order for a keylogger to to record your screen 100% correctly, it would have to be taping or taking pictures, at a 1second or less ratio.
what is not the case,
the majority of the keyloggers, i try and counter test, are set to default “take screen shots every 30 seconds” or every 60 seconds and so one.
well, less than 4 seconds, you input your password on a screen keyboard.
so, yes, screen keyboards are very effective, though, definetly, not flawless. nothing is as you very well mentioned.

still if you want to give a try at a good keylogger “defender” i suggest you to try keyscrambler.

If you got malware already in your system and active – you are pretty much screwed. It must not either get into PC at all or at least must not get access to system. Past that it’s using umbrella against flood. :)

I’m not sure if there is something like that, but i would believe that there is an generic interface for all keyboards. And in the end no body can tell you what kind of keyboard you use.
