Could you tell us why you installed a Keylogger in the first place ? Keyloggers are malicious programs that record keystrokes which can be used to duplicate or misuse user data. Keyloggers are illegal software programs !

You have a couple of options to try out. Start your computer in Safe Mode and scan the computer using Spybot-Search and Destroy and an updated anti-virus program. This should help you detect any active malware on your computer.

Secondly, you can try restoring your computer system to a known working condition. Go to the System Restore utility and choose a date prior to the date you installed the keylogger.

If even that can not be done, then you would probably have to find a way to copy your data or back it up and reinstall the operating system.

Okay, good ! Now make sure you do not try things like installing a keylogger again because in most cases enough damage would have been done by the time you wish to clean the mess.
