ABCKeylogger is Commercial monitoring software that saves the window in which you wrote the text or message as well as your keyboard entries. It is a program designed to monitor user activity. This may or may not be used with the consent of the user (i.e. you).

Because it is sold for commercial purposes it is not detected by many anti virus vendors. The most common form of commercial monitoring tool is the keystroke logger which intercepts keystrokes from the keyboard and makes a record of them in the log. This is then sent to whoever installed the software, or key logger, onto the machine. Some Commercial Monitoring Software may even take screenshots, or video which is saved in JPG format and the information is then sent to an outbound connection.

Some of the programs that automatically detect and remove this are: Pest Control, Regulatory Compliance: Grey net Enterprise Manager, Pro User: X-Cleaner, and IM - P2P Security Appliance: RTGuardian
