no offense, but thats science fiction now

As Whiskey Jack has explained on a message dated Feb. 8, programs called "key loggers" can do that. Yesterday I downloaded some antivirus freeware (eScorcher) and found this additional information in the glossary its developers have at their website:

Key Logger
Just as the name suggests if a program logs your every keystroke, it is considered a key logger. They are designed to steal your passwords and other sensitive information. There are two types of key loggers. One sends the logs to the author via email. Another one is stored in your hard drive. The author however would need the access to your computer in order to view the log. The second program can be installed on public computers, so beware and do not perform any sensitive procedures in public.

Dr. Bryan K. Kruta, you have say that "(...)as per a post by a mod earlier this week, there was a news broadcast of one of our ufo theories (kudos to that member) so if the news can broadcast our threads then surely the goverment is watching too". This is really big news. Couldn't you give us the title of the thread where the mod says that, please?

The info you're looking for can be found:
Here, you'll need to scan a bunch of pages though...

Dr Love is the member who had his post read by Peter Jennings on The Daily Show.

RANT is the mod who mentioned that fact, I believe(could be wrong).

But yes, it really did happen.

Peter Jennings stated that his "son" sent it to him after finding it on a "blog".
