H@tKeysH@@k.DLL
 

Hi all

I just completed a scan using Adaware, and noticed the following H@tKeysH@@k.DLL was listed, I have run scans and removed this before but it seems resiliant.

I have heard it was related to Opera which I did have installed once but for not long and I have removed all traces of it.

I run IE7 Rc1 and no other browser with Sygate Firewall and AVG Free anti virus.

IS this something to be worried about?

Nothing wrong with Opera!

Are you using a Game Trainer? http://my.opera.com/jor/blog/show.dml/1033

P.S AVG is crap mate. :)

Yes I have a trainer for grand theft auto san andreas, but I rarely use it.

I agree nothing wrong with Opera I just disliked the program, and moved to IE7 Rc1, and am happy with it :)

Looks like it's the Trainer then according to those links. I'd dump it asap. :)

I think their saying the trainer logs the key strokes but that might not generally mean anything bad in this case.

Here is a screenshot of the trainer it works great in game, and I noted once I run it and pressed a few trainer options the file turned up again in system32 directory like normal.

Just hope it's harmless then. Have you tried googling the trainer to see if you get a bad result about it?

Re: H@tKeysH@@k.DLL
 

Yes and I did not get a single hit on it.
