Remembering keys that were pressed.

[dawideksl]

Is it possible to recover what somebody was doing on my mac? I'm interested in saving every key that was pressed during my absence. Is it possible?

You can install keyloggers, but this won't recover anything keyed in prior to install. You won't find keyloggers in the mac app store.

However it's not all that ethical in my book. If you don't want someone using your Mac, just password protect it on sleep.

But i'm a little curious about your interest

It's their Mac they can do whatever they want with it.

Afaik keylogging software is considered unethical, because of the ability to capture people's passwords.
