Hi

Im looking to prevent a few things....


trying to make sure people cannot copy my keystrokes, sorry if worded wrong 🙂

for good general security while online so people cannot access my files in computer, hack in, that kind of stuff.


A friend recommended for one thing a Key scrambler in addition to the above



THanks

Was the friend, perchance, on a PC? "To understand how KeyScrambler works, it helps to look briefly at how an operating system like Windows actually processes keystroke data." - http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/security/keyscrambler-how-keystroke-encryption- works-to-thwart-keylogging-threats/4648


Do you have reason to suspect you have keylogging software running on your computer? If you do, you have a bigger general computer security issue because your security would be so lax you could have all kinds of things on it. I mean, we're talking you downloading malware left, right, and center from unscrupulous web sites and allowing them to install it on your computer. Basically a Mac equivalent of a PC user running their computer for the past 5 years without any virus protection. If things are that bad then you're famous because I have never heard of a Mac user who has things going to that extent. I'm not sure if I could do that to my computer if I even tried. 🙂
