Hai All,

Currently i am creating a keylogging program using C# in 2005,

I retrieved the Keys typed and Mouse clicks (left and right click) with the x and y coordinates..

But, my problem is to retrieve the opened window titles (Application Title)...

Can any one pls say any way to implement this...

Note: I am not a hacker and this project i am doing is under the cyber security topic...

Pls help me to retreive the window title...

Thanks & Regards

Rajkumar J

0	You need to use KeyBoard / Mouse hooks using SetWindowsHookEx API. See this article : http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/globalhook.aspx Cheers. www.abhisheksur.com Rajujrk, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	I guess in that case you need to get all the processes that have been opened explicitely by the current user. I think System.Diagonistics.Process will give you the name of all the processes that is running currently. I have never tried this before, but getting title messages must not be very normal and easy to do, as it leads to security breaches. www.abhisheksur.com Rajujrk, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
