16k - A Simple Passive Keystroke Logger
Description
There are several approaches to writing keystroke loggers (system wide hooks, kernel-based, passive monitoring). 16k demonstrates a simple passive approach and is intended for educational purposes only. It logs pressed keys, mouse clicks, and the active window during that input event as well as time and state in an effort to correct common input issues. To compile 16k, you'll need mingw, msys, boost C++ libraries (all free software) and a Windows PC. Compile and linking instructions are in the source code. Runs on Windows XP or newer Windows operating systems.
