I belive I got mine from the Yugioh trainer I checked for my kids. Since it was the only file found, I belive it was harmless use of the file, and just used by the trainer. However, since spybot detected it - I removed it. It will be dropped again if I use the trainer again.

I first came across the hotkeyshook keylogger back in late 2003 from various trainers off megagames website. And they still have the trainers up after I emailed them about it!

Spybot found the keylogger in root:/windows/system/ as H@tKeysH@@K.dll while Norton and AVG overlooked the file!

Yeh, i got it simply by opening a trainer to a game, its one of those cheap trainers, i haven't had any harm done to my pc though it but its annoying.

It's not a virus, it's been confirmed on many sites, this just logs your strokes that the trainer needs, and it goes nowhere.
EG, without it apparently if you press say, CTRL F to access a function it probably won't work.
Both Ad-aware and S+D detect it, i do know there is one that has simlar name.

It is not as bad as it seems, but still it is not pleasant to know that you have keylogger.

Please run antivirus to remove H@tkeysh@@k.dll file.
