This isn't a hacking website, but to get you started, check out conio header file.

I wrote this code solely for my own programming practice. Ofcourse you can use it for making keyloggers and typing tutors. But I would advise you to use it in a good way.

#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <Windows.h>

using namespace std; 

FILE *f1;

int main()
{
  SYSTEMTIME st;
  GetSystemTime(&st);
  int i=0;
  char c='b';
  cout<<"The Program has been started...\n";
  cout<<"-------------------------------\n";
  f1 = fopen("keylogger.txt","a");
  fprintf(f1,"\nLog Opened on %d-%d-%d at %d:%d\n",st.wDay,st.wMonth,st.wYear,
		  st.wHour,st.wSecond);
LOOP:
	  while(!_kbhit())
	  {
	   c = (char) _getch(); 
	  
	   if(c=='!')
		   {
			  goto END; 
		   }
	   
	   else
		   {
		   fprintf(f1,"%c",c);
		   printf("%c",c);
		   i++;
		   }
	  }
  
END:
	  fprintf(f1,"\nLogged closed on %d-%d-%d at %d:%d",st.wDay,st.wMonth,st.wYear,
		  st.wHour,st.wSecond);
	  fclose(f1);
	  cout<<"\nProgram has been terminated";
	  cout<<"\nTotal Number of keys logged:"<<i<<"\n";

  return 0;
}

You should start by reading about Hooks in MSDN.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms644959%28v=VS.85%29.aspx

There's no easy and universal way to create a keylogger. It all depends on what and how you want to do something...

Anyway, be also prepared to read about creating DLLs because that's the only way to create GLOBAL hooks. If your app is going to be invisible a global hook is mandatory.

And don't expect to get any help you if you want to create a virus or something...no offence...

@prvnkmr
If you read my post I said "YOU CAN USE THIS TO MAKE A KEYLOGGER" and ofcourse I wrote the code so I know what it is doing. Do you think I will give him the entire code?
I am not a hired programmer..

@Software guy

prvnkmr449 is right it is not a keylogger this just save data into file what u write on that console screen not from other screen

@+_+man
OK I don't want to have an argument here. I just want to say that, now days we have INTERNET, as you want to make this software so it is better if you try to look into hidden processes and autorun files.

I would have done it, if I wanted to make this program. But as it is not my software you should put some effort in. If prvkmr449 and you have a problem with this program. Then make a program and post the code.
