A keylogger is a type of malware that records the keystrokes of a user and sends them to a remote attacker1. The attacker can use the captured information to steal passwords, credit card numbers, or other sensitive data. A keylogger can be installed on a computer by attaching a small USB drive that contains a malicious executable file, such as grabber.exe2. The output.txt file may contain the recorded keystrokes. The user should remove the USB drive and scan the computer for malware.
