The utility encrypts the keystrokes at the keyboard driver level, well within the operating system. Thus, whatever Keyloggers record would only be the keystrokes which are indecipherable. The keystrokes are decrypted by KeyScrambler at the browser end to reveal exactly the keystrokes entered. KeyScrambler doesnt require any change to be carried out on your system and you neednt do anything differently. KeyScrambler’s operation is transparent, and available for both IE and Firefox. The 626 KB KeyScrambler Personal v1.3.3, for Win2k/XP/Vista, can be downloaded at http://snipurl.com/keyscrambler. Please note KeyScrambler is not foolproof, it would be useless against a hardware keylogger.
