Abstract :
Malwares are very precarious problem for Internet users. They are malicious software or programs, programmed by attackers to interrupt computer operation, gather delicate information, or gain access to client computer system. Key-logger is one of the massive threat among various malwares. It can be a hardware key-logger or software key-logger which records the keystrokes and store them in a log file and email that file to the attacker, if attacker wants to do so. It is baleful for system user or end users who use online banking rarely or ordinarily. In this paper, we propose a technique for prevention of password from a key-logger spywares and give assurance of security of password from key-logger spywares.
