Crooks Hijack Online Brokerage Accounts

TOS's trading platform is Java based.

Runs fine on my Linux machine (Fedora Core).

 

it doesn't work. I keep hitting the onscreen keyboard but nothing happens.

Oh wait, its not a touchscreen monitor.

 

I have yet to test the winXP OSK with keylogger software. The OSK may simply be sending keystrokes to the win kbd driver. The jitbit virtual kbd does not:

It works well and supports a few languages. It does not interact with the winXP keyboard driver, so it looks like the way to go. I'll test the windows on screen kbd in the next couple of days.

 

Isn't there a keylogger type program for touch screens?

 

I think IB might as well runs on Linux with VMWare or the likes (they sure do with Parallels on Mac, not sure about Linux though -- haven't tried it).

 

If you are scanning and sterilizing your machine, do not forget RootKits:

Interesting. Have Snoopfree running and see that "adaware" can hook keyboard and access control. I wonder how safe adaware really is ?

 

this is aweful...

 

TWS runs well on my linux (Fedora v4) and MacOS X.

 

So much for that idea.

Wtf????????


How are we supposed to protect ourselves?????
