History

2008/04/21 - 3.3.5
- Recompiled to use latest code libraries. Solved the problem where some users had problems with log files. Problem solved by checking the 'Enable access for assistive devices' checkbox located in the 'Universal Access' System Preference pane. Simply go to the 'Apple Menu', choose 'System Preferences', click 'Universal Access', then tick the 'Enable access for assistive devices' checkbox.

2007/12/09 - 3.3.4
- Recompiled to use latest code libraries. Found that some user had problems with log files and screenshots not saving to the hard drive. Solution seems to be making sure the KSR application permissions are set to Read Write.

2007/12/09 - 3.3.3
- Fixed problem where error message would appear when KSR would take a screenshot.

2007/12/03 - 3.3.2
- Updated KSR so that the icon does not appear in the Mac OS X 10.5's Dock.
- Rewrote the keyboard capture code. Rather than scanning the keyboard over and over, KSR now waits for events to be passed to it.

2004/12/07 - 3.3.1
- Added the option to take screenshots and have the saved to the hard drive or sent via email.

2004/09/07 - 3.2.6
- Updated KSR and KSR Prefs so that emails can be sent with no authentication. If no email username or password is entered, all authentication will be bypassed.

2004/07/18 - 3.2.5
- Fixed the log decoder to strip whitespace, which will make more successful in decoding.

2004/06/29 - 3.2.4
- Added the option to remove backspace and delete tags from the logs. These tags can be automatically be removed as the log files are saved or emailed. The tags can also be removed later using the KSR Pref Editor.

2004/06/22 - 3.2.3
- Added the option to encrypt the log files saved to the hard drive or sent via email.

2004/05/26 - 3.2.2
- Lowered pricing!

2004/05/11 - 3.2.2
- Added the option to encrypt the preferences. This will protect KSR and email account information if the KSR is detected.
- Reduced the KSR application size from 2.3MB to 1.2MB.
- Reduced the KSR Pref Editor application size from 2.2MB to 1.1MB.

2003/12/17 - 3.2.1
- Completely replaced the key recording engine with a much more accurate method.
- Fixed the problem where zero on the numerical keypad wasn't being recorded.
- Fixed the problem where the text on the keyboard queue wasn't being emailed when the computer was shutdown. Now, when KSR quits, it saves the text to the hard drive, then when it is launched it looks for the text file, reads the text file, emails the text from the text file, and then deletes the text file.
- Updated KSR to make detection by "spyware hunting" programs more difficult. The Prefs Editor is detectable.

2003/10/29 - 3.1.4
Changed KSR so the icon does not show up in Panther's dock.
Changes in Mac OS 10.3 made KSR visible in the dock when running KSR 3.1.3 and earlier.
Also made KSR to make detection by "spyware hunting" programs more difficult.

2003/06/03 - 3.1.3
Changed the Prefs Editor to make it possible to test the email account for sending the log files.
The Prefs Editor now has a button to send a test message and it shows you the "SMTP Conversation".

2003/03/18 - 3.1.2
Fixed problem with sending emails to a .Mac email account by enabling ESMTP as a user preference.
Made detection by "spyware hunting" programs harder.
Please email comments@campsoftware.com if you are aware of a program that detects the latest version of KeystrokeRecorder.

2003/02/04 - 3.1.1
Many changes this time:

Added ability to send the recorded keys via email. KeystrokeRecorder sends email uses a protocol called SMTP and you have a choice either plain, login, or CRAM-MD5 authentication. Saving the file to the hard drive is another option for saving the key presses.
The date and time of the preferences file is now back dated by one year to make it harder to find when sorting the preferences folder by date.
Added ability to add the tag "<DT>" to the email subject line so the date and time are added to the subject as "20020418 165923". This makes it very easy to sort the email list by subject to keep the time line in order.
Updated the KeystrokeRecorder X Pref Editor. Fixed a problem if cancel was pressed.
Tested the base file name feature. A few users mentioned that choosing no did not work. It worked fine as long as the prefix or suffix has a value in either or both fields. The prefix, suffix, and base must not be blank when appended together since the log file must have a filename.
2002/04/15 - 3.0.3
Added the process name as well as the date and time in the log files.

2002/04/02 - 3.0.2
Updated stealth issue. KeystrokeRecorder is practically invisible in the process viewer. However, ProcessWizard, listed KSR as "KeystrokeRecorder X". It is now listed as something much less obvious. Thanks for finding this Duane!

2002/03/25 - 3.0.1
First public release.
