    Does anyone know how to by-pass or temporary disable a key-stroke recorder program on a network at work?
    Its not to go look at porn at work either
    It would be to go look at things on the net or check my email.
    any help would be great!
    sorry if this is in the wrong forum.

    Sadly no we wont tell you instructions to bypass your works security blocks, some companies can tell even if you have bypassed their keystroke or blocks by the outgoing URLs and IPs as they will be in the logs that a good Network Admin can search, have to say is looking at your email in work worth loosing your job over?

    I guess your contract of employment has clauses about using the interent in work for personal things... sucks but thats the companys prerogative.

    thanks for a quick answer
    and i guess your right, why lose your job over checking email.

    do you know if there is a way to find out if there is actually a key-stroke recorder program installed?

    You could hit CTRL-ALT-DEL and make a note of all the running processes and then when home do a search on each of them to find out what they belong too?


    One major security software that companies use is Websense, its same one as the Gov dept I work for use to monitor and block certain websites etc unless your profile is adjucted to allow you to access various authorised websites and online emails.
