    Norton removed a key logger I put on my own computer and now I'm trying to get the program or at least the log it created back. I haven't restarted my pc or anything since it removed. Is there a way to get it back or see what was typed on my computer in the past day?

    There is are free file recovery progs you can use, but they will only work if the files have not been overwriten.
    Recuva and Pandora Recovery "MIGHT" restore the log files.

    In the future, before installing such a program as a keylogger, turn off norton, install it, then go into nortons options and add the install directory as one to ignore/exception.
    I know I have done this to monitor my kids activities online (they were minors) and it paid off in a huge way, it allowed me to catch and stop unwanted activity before it got out of hand, but, this is about the only way I would condone the use of these progs. Any other reason is just unethical imo.
