I just made something go around, and I think it's coming back at me!!
I got my computer password locked and was desperate to find the code, so I downloaded two keyloggers to track it down. Unfortunately, they need administrative rights (I don't have) and are now on my computer. I found and deleted the files, but I'm not sure if that will totally rid of them, and if my own dad will see the report.
I'm going to avoid mentioning certain words if this comes up in a report like last time (yes, I've had an experience like this before).

Uhm...yeah, I'm a bit sensitive about someone on the outside knowing I'm a yoshi freak...
OH CRUD, that's gonna show up if the logger is active.

If you were the owner of your system, I'd suggest a few tools to break into the administrator profile and disable the password. As far as seeing if keyloggers are running, if you deleted the installed files without problems, they won't be running. If you intentionally downloaded a virus that keylog's, then you're stuck as 1 file splits into 2 or 3 peices, moves them to hard to reach places on your hard drive, then sticks them in tons of startup keys in your registry, and can be a pain to get out.
The Sub7 trojan does this very thing.
If your dad does find the keylogger stuff, chances are he'd delete it all without knowing what it does.
Windows LEVEL UP ! ! doesn't log what you do. Only online, so if you use your own profile on the computer, download and install firefox for your profile only. Any sites you visit will not get logged in IE, and you will be able to completely wipe any trace of you going to any site.
Still, why care so much about concealing your fandom for Yoshi? I'm darn proud of it. If someone's got a problem, they have issues, and deserve to be casted down into the firey caverns of hell.

Yeah, for sure! No need to be like, paranoid about people finding out! Some people even have more than one fandom. >_>

Why are you so scarred about somebody knowing it? I WANT to be called Yoshi Mastar, it helps spread my popularity on and off line. Plus it basically is my name so it isn't an insult. Oh man... if only I could make my name logo on a shirt and wear it around school... that would be sweet...

Heh, only if I still were in grade school, because I've already made a teh yoshi shirt . I'm sure BloodYoshi has a picture of that somewhere.

This thing didn't split or anything, I just downloaded it, but I needed administrative rights (which have been taken away from me for over-use by my pop). I deleted all the files I found...shouldn't be too hard, maybe this isn't a problem. BTW, for those who said, hack into an administrative, already done, erased my password, but if I write a new one and change other account passes (including mine) I'll end up without a computer PERIOD. It only logs what I do online? That's interesting...my last one recorded a report I wrote up...maybe there's different types. It doesn't log me when I'm the one to download it? GOOD...that's real good news. And about me liking yoshi, well...I'm a bit shyer than a few of you guys (alright, nearly all of you) and my parents are persuaded I'm too old for it...I guess everyone's different.

My 9th grade Spanish teacher and my friend "Shnoz" calls me Enrique.
I'm not real open about Yoshi fandom either, mainly because not very many people actually know what I'm talking about... when I talk about Nintendo in general. =P I wish I could be more open about it...
