The safer way (but not safest) is use the virtual keyboard.

virtual keyboard works for keyloggers, not password stealers. refer to my previous post in this thread.

Good tutorial, but in my opinion Zone Alarm is better then Comodo Firewall. And yes, the master password has no defense against an real attack.

thanks that's very helpful

[DeLeTeD]

any other methods that people know?

like some said the master password won't help. Maybe additional security/addon for firefox?

^ a master password wont do shit.

using a firewall with a custom policy mode is the best way - it allows you to check all outgoing information before it leaves your pc.


also, you should open all keygens/untrusted exe's in a VM..

Not at all. ZoneAlarm is application level firewall whereas COMODO is packet level firewall. U can monitor every packet that is going to and from your PC, where as in ZoneAlarm, this doesn't happen.
Packet level firewall is always better than application level firewall.

Also, COMODO is somewhat difficult to use and configure for newbies. Thats y most ppl fine zonealarm good, but its not like that.

Also, the only way 2 prevent from stealers/keyloggers/rats is use open source softwares. There r many many good open source softwares available, which r seriously better than closed source/paid softwares.
Or else, get ur downloads frm trusted sources.
VMWare is also der to help out.

OR BUY THEM


Get ur untrusted/suspicious copy of software. Run it under VMWare and start sniffer, COMODO shud b installed too
My VMWare has COMODO + BitDefender IS 2010 + Wireshark/any sniffer.


Also, if u hv some knowledge of debugging, then debug that EXE using ollydbg or any other good debugger. If the attacker has used FTP/SMTP to get logs, then u can steal his logs by getting his login info, LOLzzz.
I dunno how to get PHP info Anybody knows?
