In the same vein, but a different application, does anyone know what
the state of the art is for detecting such tampering? In particular,
when sitting at a PC doing banking, is there any mechanism by which a
user can know that the PC is not corrupted with such a key logger?
The last time I checked, there was nothing other than the various
anti-virus software.
