More information about the nature of Keyloggers.
Souce: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Autohotkey is a well known 3rd party application used for simulating keystrokes, macros and commands. It is designed to work along with AutoIt, which is used for automating Windows rollouts and certain Windows GUI elements. WoW users use this program to aid in Multiboxing, which is just one of the many uses. There's an ongoing 'research' on how to break Keyloggers using AutoHotkey, which provides some detailed information into the nature of keyloggers and how they function, as well as what is 'safe' and what isn't. Breaking myths such as virtual keyboard and clipboard backdoors.

No problem, I spread things like this because I have personally been keylogged before and its a very not fun process.

Very good addon to prevent flash from loading without permission is no script for firefox..

noscript.net is where you can find it.

Blizzard just posted this on the alert message and high recommend players to upgrade their adobe flash to the latest version to prevent that keylog thing.

Absolutely wrong.. Mac still uses flash in everything.

Every platform uses Adobe Flash player.

No one is immune, it affects everyone.

Use firefox([Only registered and activated users can see links. ]) with NoScript ([Only registered and activated users can see links. ]) then you choose what loads and what don't.
