Universal Remotes of Past

Kid came back with grandpa’s walking stick which old men used to poke buttons on old fashioned TV in order to change channel. Hilarious but at the same time original and innovative .

I supose you would like to have one of these spy toys for, either finding out what’s going  with your computer at work whenever you leave the office or spying on your co-workers( not recomended). In both cases you can count on The Spy Keylogger to do a great job in storing( 2MB of internal memory) all the keystrokes made on tapped computer.  It works with most wired keyboards by simple connecting logger between computer and the keyboard. Hence, if you use wireless keyboard your typed data is safe from this silent predator.

These keyloggers act as the “man-in-the-middle,” monitoring each keystroke as it streams down your cable into your computer. You notice nothing, since every key you type gets dutifully reproduced on your screen. Somewhere, however, you’ve got a sneaky person quietly recording everything, just waiting for you to step away for a few minutes so they can retrieve the offending device and play back everything. The logger saves every keystroke into onboard memory. To read the contents, remove the logger and connect it to your own computer and keyboard. Typing in a password into any text-editor begins the memory-dump process.

USB model retails for $59.99 and PS/2 interface model goes for $79.99. Get yours from ThinkGeek.com and have some fun in the spy world. In mean time, check back of your office computer. Maybe someone already had a same idea.
