Fooling a keylogger with a simple method !

Hi guys,

I just want to share a cool idea of mine.. i was thinking some random stuff and came up with this idea :-)

when you surf net at public computers or net cafes…maybe it can be even at your friends house..etc.. there is a danger that a possible key logger software can steal your password, so i have come up with a simple and effective way to counter it…at least 50% …

lets see how simply you can fool a key logger,

When you choose passwords try using simple, capital & numbers as a combination..
when you enter them in a public computer rather than entering it in sequence try entering it in a combination..

This is how you do it..

im accessing my yahoo mail in a public computer

my password is – hi2K1987 [DEMO password]

This is how a key logger captures the password

Now when you break your password into 3 combinations and enter them one after another (without using the backspace key) so what i did was i entered 2k first then using the mouse i went to the start of the password field and entered hi then i placed the cursor at the end and entered 1987 now simply the key logger is fooled,

Now imagine if you use a set of numbers for your password and you enter them in a combination…

so, guys next time you enter your password you know you are safeĀ :-)
