Ok Guys... a little help
I need to know how to get rid of a Key-logger, and perhaps how to prevent him from resetting my World of Warcraft account password every 32 hours. I'm open to all meaningful, suggestions

Re: Ok Guys... a little help
Virus scans by Spybot S&D, AVG and Ad-Aware. That should take care of the problem. If not, idkl what to do.

Re: Ok Guys... a little help
There's AVG trials that can get any viruses. I've had variant c viruses, trojans, hijackers, and things like that before. AVG took care of them all for me.

Re: Ok Guys... a little help
AVG definitely does the trick for me too, had it for years now and haven't had a single problem caused by any virus at all ^.^
If you want to get rid of all kinds of spyware, adware and all other stuff like that, I'd also highly recommend Hitman Pro (click to download it, it's free as well )

Re: Ok Guys... a little help
If nothing else, you can always just reformat your computer. Unfortunately, that means reinstalling everything you have back onto it. That's just a last resort though.

Re: Ok Guys... a little help
If you are willing to pay. I'd recommend ESET's NOD 32 and the best firewall is onlinearmor just disable NOD32's firewall (if it comes with one I really can't remember. If you want free software get AVG and Spyware docter.
P.S if these don't get rid of if just get a trial of one of the better anti-virus like Nod32. When it eventually starts asking you to pay just uninstall the Anti-Virus and put AVG and Spyware docter on your comp instead turn AVGs firewall on windows firewall won't stop anybody.

Re: Ok Guys... a little help
Firstly, what makes you think it's a keylogger?
It could be something else. Have you ever tried contacting World of Warcraft staff?
If somone had hacked you, they wouldn't be resetting every 32 hours. It could be an SQL problem (the database is choosing your account from a database and sending automatic resets. Not all resets are manual (like an admin can change your pass automatically)). Try seeking staff help. If that fails, then it might be something else.
I don't think it's a keylogger. Wouldn't the hacker want your msn or something rather than randomly change your WoW password every 32 hours?
