Hacking saga part 1 [Keyloggers]

    Welcome to Hacking saga part 1:  About Keyloggers

“ The high importance and usage of keyloggers is only because curiosity of human to know what others are doing”

What are keyloggers??

Keyloggers are nothing but spy software used to spy on someone and knoiw what they are doing.This is one of the best tool and method for hacking e-mail accounts.There are different keyloggers as software and hardware.I have divided the keyloggers posts into three parts totally 1)software 2)hardware 3)protection from keyloggers.We will be dealing with first part now and other two parts consecutively in next articles.

1)Software keyloggers:

Software Keyloggers   are the programs written generally in C programming language.The word keyloggers was named because these softwares record keystrokes,anyway these programs extended there features like recording audio,video,taking screenshots and many others.These are of many types as kernel-based,API-based…..These generally work in stealth mode(works background very secretly).

Now let us stop our discussion through theory part and start our discussion to practical part of keyloggers.There are numerous number of keyloggers avaible on market,out of them ardamax,beyond,allinone are few good one’s.Some of them have remote installation feature and some others don’t,Many paid softwares only support remote installation.I know we people don’t want to pay for it,so fine let us discuss about BEYOND keylogger using which we can goto system which we want to spy and send the logs directly from there to our mail eliminating the necessity to there each time to check for logs as with normal keyloggers(Remote installation is different)

Practical Explanation:

You can download Beyond keylogger at here

NOTE: Please go through each and every level of installation carefully and read the instructions very carefully,it increases ur stealthiness level and also helps in some others.

After downloading the free trail keylogger from the above mentioned site,it will ask for a password to type which is important one(do not forget this,if we forget this,we need to get into safe mode and then remove the keylogger and need to use different other methods to remove this).Why is this password for??Whenever we type this password,the keylogger prompt like this

If we have a normal short cut icon for this like browsers and others,people can easily detect that there is a keylogger and so this method has been implemeneted

NOTE:selection of password should be an uncommon word,if we have kept ‘yes’ as a password and if victim types this whenever he is discussing with his friend and this window will pop up,so he can suspect.So select unusual and not commonly used password.

After selecting and entering password Just goto e-mail settings on the left tab and then (all this is to be done on victim system,I mean we are installing keylogger whose logs has to be sent to our mail sitting at our home) click “e-mail settings” .Now enter mail details of which we want his/her logs to be delivered.Dont give ur official mails,we cant trust anyone,even me :P so just create a new mail and give details of it.I have created in gawab.com and gave details of it,u can also give any other details and when ur filling the details the second option is smtp address,if u don’t know the smtp address of the mail ur using just enter the domainname.com there in smtp field and look up option allows you to get smtp address.(or easy googling can let u find what it is).gawab.com smtp is smtp.gawab.com so I entered all details there and selected the options which are available there as per my requirements.

 

 And after completely filling the details just go for  send test option,u will be getting a sample test mail that settings were saved.U can see my mail having logs of different system where I installed keylogger from below screenshot

 

And when we want to uninstall the keylogger,u just pop up window with ur password and then u will have an option called uninstall on left tab click on it and proceed,u cant uninstall it without knowing password,that’s why I have stressed much not to forget password in the starting.And that’s it.Everything is very simple which will not take even a minute to process on,I will be telling about remote installation and hardware and protection from keyloggers(most important) in next coming posts in sequence for sure.
