I agree that our security lies in our hands. But that aside, hacking ACTUALLY does not involve the use of tools like keyloggers, screen loggers or decrypter tools. Do you agree? I too consider myself to be a little familiar with the web and the various things we could do with it. I am a programmer myself. And I understand that we are discussing and not arguing. So I am sorry if I was a little rude too.
hiiiii Buddy ( Pavan)
Its Good that you are familiar with keylogger..
Try to use the software Anti key Loggers I have Mentioned.... they are very useful...
Buddy i don’t want to prove you wrong, we are not having any fight here. we are just discussing things here...
Well buddy I’m a Techno Geek. I’m here Just to help you Guys, & Telling you all some safety Measures. I’m not here to prove any one wrong.
I agree that Hackers are not jobless, But dear all the Young Budding Hackers Learn Hacking By doing hacking at smaller Levels where some loop Holes are present. I have also Learnt some Hacking by this way only & Some people do hacking for fun also & also to show others how much they know.
So Bro i was just trying to tell you that "Our Security lies in our Hand & its better to be careful and protect our things rather than blaming others after the theft.
The Point is why we should give others a chance to hack. & why should we invite others to hack by showing them the loop hole.
Hope Buddy you understand it!!!

I am very much familiar with the use of keyloggers. And talking about cyber cafes, even if you didn't save your password or whatever; you are bound to get hacked if they use a keylogger. I guess in that case these measures could be useful.
And yes, I DO use my friend's computer at times and let my friends use mine too. But not in my absence. At least, not the ones that arent among the "trusted" lot. But since you want to prove me wrong so badly, let me tell you.
Hackers are not so jobless that they hack all the possible small-time e-mail accounts they can. They too have some goals in mind. A proper hacker would actually think of hacking one of the servers of the e-mail provider. In which case, all these steps would be useless. Am I right?
Please dpn't mind the tone though. I kinda felt your reply to my comment was rude.
@ Pushkar
Using a Onscreen Keyboard is a good option if Keyboard keylogger has been Installed
But there are some visual keyloggers which captures screenshots.they records all the screen so in that case using a online keylogger would be risky
But No Problem You can use Anti key loggers like Elite and zemana which easily remove keyloggers, detect spyware, trojans, worms, and other malicious spying software. It moniters activities and detect even most advanced keyloggers.

@ Pavan
First Tell me One thing Have You ever used Software Named Keylogger?????
If you have not used, Try to use it...
Buddy it Tracks all your Keystrokes including the Passwords,
& Please Now Dont tell me you have never used your Friends Computer or you have not went to cafe, what if there Keylogger is installed there now Even if you havent used Saved Password Option your Password would be Hacked Easily.
So you wont be able to do anything Unless you used Any Anti Logger or you have used Online Keyboard Pushkar Has Mentioned.
Coming Back to Saved Password option even if you have used Saved Password Option in your Personal Laptop or Computer. your Password can be hacked easily by your friends also when you are away!!!!!!
& It is Very Easy to Hack Password Remotely by a Hacker if you have saved it in your Computer in Cookies so now even if you haven't given your computer or Laptop to anyone still Your Password can Be Hacked Remotely!!!!!
So Dont Use Save Password even in your personal computer or Laptop !!!!
& Whenever you go to cafe use Antikeylogger like "Zemana" or using Onscreen Keyboard is a good option!!!
Hope you got Everything !!!!!!

kunal
I cant help but mention... All these are relevant only when the computer in context i "shared" i.e. public computers. People who use remember password in public computers are dumb enough in the first place. And is there any chance that you will let a complete stranger or even someone you know barely, use your home computer in your absence? I am sorry, but all these things which you have mentioned are according to me, obsolete.
@ Pushkar
Thnx..
The Softwares like IE pass View, Google CHrome Pass they can extract your password only if you have used Remember my Password Option & Yeah if you delete all Private Data including Cache and Cookies Manually or By using Softwares all the Stored Passwords are Deleted !!!!!
But The "KeyLogger" is different kind of software which is keyboard Tracker, it records all your keystrokes including Passwords are recorded in it.
SO To Protect Yourself From this tool you can use any AntiKeylogger like "Zemana AntiLogger" which detects all the Keylogger installed in your Computer.
If you still have any Doubts, Please Let Me know
Regards
Kunal
What if Onscreen keyboards (e.g Google keyboard) are used for passwords, will keylogger still detect the password?
Nice info, Kunal. What about the new porn modes like InPrivate Browsing, Incognito. Do they stil let these softwares store your passwords? They claim to delete all private data, do they only mean cookies & not passwords.
Would like to know ways to protect against these softwares?

Most welcome Buddy !!!..
If you have any other doubts do let me know.
I think its not only that if we click on "remember my password" then only we r in danger. Infact even when when we go to any of cyber cafe the same security loophole is present. As who knows may be the cafe owner has installed keylogger in his pc's?
Then what?
Good Question Prabhjot, I appreciate it. Keylogger is quite dangerous tool, it records all your keystrokes including Passwords.
Quite Right the cafe owner can install the keylogger, you can easily check it by going to control Panel< Add Or Remove Programs.
The Best Thing You can do is that use a "ANTILOGGER" like Zemana AntiLogger
it will tell you that weather any Keylogger, webcam logger, screenlogger installed in the system or not. it would be very useful for you.
carry it in your Pen Drive whenever you go to Cyber CAfe.
