becky, Did you find any suspicious programs in the Add/Remove programs list that you can find by opening the Control Panel? Double click the Add/Remove Programs icon there, and when the list is populated, look thru the list for anything you dont recognize. If there is a program with the word "logger" in it, you could very well have a keylogger program in there. If not, its still possible, and you would need to scan your computer for spyware and malware. There are several online scanners for this, or you can use one of my favorites, Ad Aware 2007, or AVG Antispyware. AVG used to be called Ewido, and is very effective at detecting and removing spyware. Ad Aware 2007 is also. AVG online scanner can be done here if you have Windows 2000 or XP: http://www.ewido.net/en/onlinescan/Ad Aware 2007 does not have an online scanner, but is a free download, and can be found to download here: http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-8022_4-10045910.htmlWhen installing Ad Aware 2007, when it asks for your product key, or license key, just click the "Cancel" button to tell it you want the free version. Then after installation is complete, click on update, and keep clicking "Yes" until it downloads all updates. Then just click the "Scan Now" button, and highlight the "Complete scan" section by clicking on it once, then click "Scan Now" again. Be sure to read the tutorial to learn how to use the program fully. Hope this helps. chris
