    I did a Hdd low level wipe, and reinstalled XP Home. After installing the main-
    board drivers and other soft ware, I found some thing called, "Keyhook", in
    MSCONFIG. (C:\Windows\System...Software\Windows\Current Version\Run)
    The driver installed was my VGA driver. (SIS 661FX) Xminator II 3.53 I did a
    quick registry search and found a couple of entries. I also found it in SYS32
    Isn't a keyhook the same as a key logger?

    I've googled the variations I can come up with. Keyhook is equated to keylogger. The drivers I used are from the factory CD. I do need the driver if
    I want to use a res. other than M$ default 800X600.

    Ok... I'm not 100% sure, but I think I have the answer. The "keyhook" is a
    means of using "hotkeys" :)
