KEYSPY Keyboard Data Logger

at 10:58 am. Filed under Cool Gadgets, Electronic Hacks

Not that I am suggesting you use this for illegal purposes… But there is something about the power of a key logger that is cool.

“The KEYSPY is a hardware keyboard logger that can record keystrokes from a PS/2 keyboard and send them back to the PC at any later time. It consists only of a PIC16C84 microcontroller, an EEPROM (24C32 up to 24C512) an analog multiplexer 4053 and a few resistors. A great advantage of the KEYSPY compared with software keyloggers is that it will also log bios passwords or show that someone tried to access the computer with a DOS boot disc. The used EEPROM (24C64) has a capacity of 8KB and can store about 8000 keystrokes.”

    OMGF. The same device (actually, a better device) can be made using just 2 components. Details here:

    Has anyone built this? I would like to try to build it but the included schematic isnt very clear.

    Yeah Ive seen that. The guy who runs that site is pretty helpful so hopefully Ill be able to complete this project soon. My new computer doesnt have a printer port to program the PIC controller which sucks, but Ive got others I can use for it. Does anyone know a good DIY PIC programmer to build? Ive seen a few but Im not sure if there is one that is much better than another.

    About the programmer: I only just started using PICs, and I bought the PICkit 2 from Microchip. It’s cheap, and best of all: it’s a USB programmer with no external power, which makes it really simple to use. Especially for me, I only have a laptop computer and no serial port or similar.
    It’s also pretty fast.
    I think it’s a good deal.
    Hope that helps.

    Keysnoop wants to ‘program your device’. Yes I sure want them programming that for me cause I trust everyone. Here’s my pin number…
