A Key logger is a program that runs invisibly in the background, recording all the keystrokes, usually saving the results to a log file.
A computer running key logger software keeps records of all the keys being pressed in the keyboard. Anyone who wants to illegally access others personal email can do it by installing free key logger software in their computers. It can also record the screen shots and various activities performed on one’s computer.
Hence to be sure that your email accounts are not being accessed by other people. If these free web mail services would provide the functionality to keep logs of the last activity then the user could easily check it whether it is being accessed by them or others.
The best thing we can do for now is, if you are frequently accessing web mail accounts from unsafe locations then try changing your passwords after certain months. Don’t change it too frequently that you forget your password.
