Keylogger.

My college is having a keylogger installed. Is there anyway out so that I my teachers are not able to know what I am surfing.

Depends on what you want to do. If you want to avoid having your passwords logged - A good idea, type in the last half of the password, mouse click back to the beginning and then enter the first half, ie:-

password is 123456

Enter 566, click back before 5 and enter 123.

Break this down into more parts to protect more.

Should you wish avoiding using the OS as a whole, use a LiveCD of Linux to boot from.

Thanks for information now I use backspace and that effectively fools my teachers in college.

Yes, it's a simple thing and very effective.. More people should use it IMO.

There are some 'loggers' which record whats happening on the screen, but these are very expensive, and the typical *** which a password fiend uses stops this possibility.

Yes the best way to make fool of a keylogger is to first write something rubbish and then use backspace and then type what you need.
