    Hello ramesh5235,

    By their very nature keyloggers work in stealth mode. Have you run a scan yet, if so what was the result?

    By the way this topic was posted in the beta forum, which version of Spybot-S&D did you install?

    Best regards,

    Why do you suspect a key logger, what kind of .exe did you try to open? Do you have an anti virus program installed and how is the computer running?
