Keyloggers are the one of the commonly used tool for hacking or stealing your personal data like passwords , IDs and even your ATM pin...
So today i will teach you to protect from these keyloggers.

Step 1 :- Open task manager (Ctrl+shift+esc) -> Processess -> View -> select columns -> Tick PID

Step 2 :- Open command prompt and type "netstat -ano"
Now you have to look for only Established PID
