I've just installed Arovax AntiSpyware and ran a scan whereby  it revealed Realspy & Sherlock Keylog. These are both keylog spyware.

Before I ran the Arovax scan, I scanned my computer with Avast anti virus v4.7; Ad-aware 2007 (free edition); Spyware Terminator; CC Clean; Panda AntiRoot kit and Web Security Guard.
My PC is also protected by Comodo Pro Firewall V.3;  Comodo BOClean and SpyBlaster. 

None of the aforementioned were able to prevent or reveal  the 2 key loggers except Arovax AntiSpyware.

So I have to strongly recommend it. It's also very easy to use and free.  Clapping

I once tested Arovax AntiSpyware and it gave me false positives too. So I don't feel the need to test it again Undecided

Xoftspy also gives insane false positives, after every update it finds new 'spyware' and it has been confirmed by me and the security community it produces FP's.

I think its pretty good, but I dont like its lack of shields.  It only defends at the file system level, dosnt protect favorites ect.

No fooling. You can use it past the 30 days but it turns into an only on demand scanner.
