[Old Thread] Online Armor spots Calibre Keylogger
Hi, kovidgoyal, I just installed Calibre. It seems to work well enough. However, in the middle of reading a book Online Armor flagged that the calibre-parallel process wanted to run and in fact wanted to install a keylogger. What's it all about? I wasn't doing any conversion; I was just reading a book--and at the moment that the calibre-parallel process wanted to run wasn't even reading the book but working with another program.

I reposted this on ebook-software/calibre.
Seems it's been moved already. Last edited by Randon136; 02-08-2013 at 02:07 PM. Reason: update |

I contacted Online Armor and they told me that I could safely 'trust' Calibre.

Click on Start -> Go to All Programs -> Click on Accessories -> Select Accessibility ->Click on On-Screen Keyboard Executing the above steps opens a keyboard on the screen so that the user can click whatever letter he/she would like to type. Since a keylogger does not track where and what the user clicks, this helps to get around it in times of urgency. Last edited by quickercarter; 08-20-2013 at 03:01 AM. |
