RE: Professional use keylogger

I'm curious what are reasonable expectations for being able to detect these?

For example, I know SpyBot S&D detects some of the lazier keylogger software
packages.  Same with Microsoft Anti-Spyware (formerly GIANT).  Are there any
that are better than others?

What does law enforcement use, or do they have home-spun detections.  I've
read about several cases where passwords for BestCrypt or PGP were taken via
search warrant using a keylogger.  A hardware keylogger is so obvious and
I've never seen on that works on USB devices, especially when the keyboard
itself has a hub in it and gets a lot of other traffic over its bus.

Comments?

Make sure your/their policies make mention of logging, expectation of
privacy, etc if you use something like this.

Just purchased one of these and it works great, no complaints. 
It's a hardware solution, really small with good storage.

Hello all,

Could anyone recommend a 'professional' grade keylogger, i.e. one that could
be used in a corporate environment, trojan-free, etc... ?

Has anyone evaluated the KGB Keylogger:

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,
