Default Re: Keylogger Found

To be truly safe you should reformat. That may sound nitish, but it could be the case that Mcafee removed the keylogger but the stealth trojan/worm/whatever that installed it is still around. Personally I would never be comfortable using a computer for anything of consequence if it had at one time been infected.

That said, you could try the following to cleanse it:

boot into safe mode

scan with Mcafee, spybot search and destroy, lavasoft

run rootkitrevealer

run hijackthis and post the log on say majorgeeks and have some gurus take a look at it
