Are there any free programs that can record what keys are entered?

[Jimmil]

I'm concerned that my two teenage boys are doing inappropriate things on the computer and would like a program to record what they do. I've heard of this Amac Keylogger, but after reading some about it, not sure I want to install it, also, it's very expensive. Are there any free programs that can record what keys are entered? If they can do other stuff too, I'm sure that that would be great.

I haven't used any such programs myself, but after doing a bit of Google search, managed to find this link : download.cnet.com/windows/monitoring-software/ You might try one out of the one's listed there.

No any better suggestion for me? Well, still glad to tell you that i have chosen the Amac Keylogger and it works very well. I am very impressed with it. Apart from providing rock solid protection, the best thing I like is that it does not slow down my computer.

Are you 100% sure you actually want to see what they're doing?

Track4win is the best, we deployed it across our whole network!

Well, there are many Key loggers available both paid and freeware, but the free one would risk your computer's security as Key loggers are a Trojan/backdoor itself.

Hence its advised to use the key logger carefully, the paid ones can be trusted more than the freeware.

And yes, if you are good at programming or know C language, there are many free scripts available which you can customize according to your needs
