Hi All,
I'm looking for input on what you all believe the most common keystroke
loggers are. I've been challenged to write an authentication method (for
a web site) that can be secure while using a compromised system.

I don't think that's possible for all compromise situations, given
today's desktop OS software.

  How about one-time passwords?  Just go ahead and *let* them keylog it all 
they like; by the time they've snarfed a pw, it's no use any more.  (See 
S/Key for more details.)

    cheers,
      DaveK
