Hooker, the intelligent trojan keylogger ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (history) 1.0 ~~~ Just a experimental program with very weak possibilities (just a simple keylog). Was completely rewritten in the next versions. 2.0 ~~~ Now it sends a keylog. Added ripping of cached passwords (*.pwl). Installs in registry to the user-defined path. It is possible to define max size of a log-file, after which Hooker recreates it. Added keylog of windows with pre-defined words in title. Added self-destructing feature. 2.1 ~~~ Added sending of log after overflow. 2.2 beta 1 ~~~~~~~~~~ Fixed huge bug in keylogging - hook-function must be in DLL! Troyan became much stable. Added feature of http-files download. 2.2 beta 2 ~~~~~~~~~~ Fixed bug in function which adds system dates. 2.3 beta 1..4 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Added detection of a RAS-connections. Fixed bug in using of critical sections - sometimes there was conflicts of threads. Now keylogging DLL is packed by LZW. Some minor bugs fixed. 2.3 beta 5 ~~~~~~~~~~ Fixed bug with sending of keylog. If in window press only ".", troyan wasn't able to send mail preperly (Hooker simply flood mailbox with big amount of messages). 2.3 beta 6 ~~~~~~~~~~ Little changes in sendmail-procedure. Fixed unpleasant feature: Hooker didn't start on machine without rasapi32.dll - for example, on WinNT, which is not using Dial-Up Networking. Now, if this dll is not present Hooker simply do not detect RAS-connections. 2.4 ~~~ No more betas! It's a release. Fixed little bug in username and hostname detection. Added a couple of features: full keylog: if not checked, Hooker will log only windows, where was keystrokes. advanced log: if not checked, Hooker will not log extended keys (such as "Shift", "Alt" etc). Also fixed bug in connection by IP.
