Introduction

About the product

The KeyGrabber Wi-Fi Premium is an advanced hardware keylogger with a built-in Wireless

LAN communications module. It features a huge 2 GB internal flash disk organized as a file system. All text data typed on the connected keyboard will be captured and stored on the internal Flash Drive in a special file. Text data may be later retrieved in two ways: the classical way through Flash Drive mode and Text Menu mode, or remotely through Wireless LAN. The

Wireless LAN functionality allows receiving logged data as E-mail reports, and on-demand via the local TCP/IP network. The KeyGrabber Wi-Fi Premium is 100% transparent for computer operation and no drivers are required.

Quick Start

This section assumes you are already familiar with basic hardware keylogger handling, such as recording and retrieving data. It is particularly important to be familiar with Flash Drive mode, as this mode will be used to configure the WLAN functionality. If not, please refer to sections


,


, and

Remote access

first.

Before you start, make sure you have the following data about the Wi-Fi network the keylogger will operate in:



WLAN Access Point ID (SSID)



WLAN encryption type (WPA-2, WPA, WEP64/128, or open network)



WLAN encryption password

Make sure you also have an E-mail address the wireless keylogger can send reports to.

Step 1. Open a text editor (such as Notepad) and create a file named WIFI.TXT. This file will later be used to configure the keylogger. Use the following template:

WiFiNetwork=MyNetwork

WiFiPassword=MyPassword

WiFiEncryption=WPA2

[email protected]

Replace MyNetwork with the Access Point ID (SSID). Replace MyPassword with the WLAN password. Provide the encryption type using one of the following strings: WPA2, WPA,

WEP64, WEP128, or None. Provide the E-mail address you would like to receive reports to after the Recipient string. Make sure you provide all strings in a case-sensitive manner.

Finally, save the configuration file as WIFI.TXT.

5



Step 2. Connect the keylogger and enable Flash Drive mode.

USB version PS/2 version

Plug the keylogger in-between the keyboard and USB port, and press the 3-key combination

Use the supplied USB Download

Accelerator to connect the device to a USB port. simultaneously (by default K, B, S)

After a few seconds, the hardware keylogger will automatically get detected as a mass storage device, and pop up as a removable drive.

Step 3. Copy the configuration file WIFI.TXT to the keyloggers Flash Drive.

Then, safely remove the device, and disconnect it from the USB port.

6



Step 4. Connect the keylogger and the keyboard to start recording keystroke data.


Plug the USB keylogger in-between the keyboard and USB port.

Plug the PS/2 keylogger in-between the keyboard and PS/2 port.

On power-up, the keylogger will automatically connect to the Access Point defined in

WIFI.TXT, and send an E-mail report to the specified recipient address every hour. Besides logged keystroke data, the report will contain Access Point information, IP configuration, and time-stamps.

7



Step 5. If E-mail reporting is not enough, you can take full control over the keylogger from any computer in your Local Area Network. Install the supplied application KL Tools, add the keylogger to the list by its IP number, and explore the available features.

Using KL Tools you can communicate with multiple Wi-Fi hardware keyloggers, allowing creating entire networks of wireless keyloggers. This solution is particularly recommended for monitoring several computers in a household, or controlling employee productivity in companies.

Recording mode is the default mode of operation for the KeyGrabber Wi-Fi Premium keylogger. In record mode, the device will silently monitor all keystrokes coming from the keyboard and store them on the internal Flash Drive in file LOG.TXT.

Installation of the keylogger in record mode is quick and easy, no software or drivers are required. Simply plug it in between the keyboard plug and keyboard port. Recording will start automatically on power-up.


Plug the USB keylogger in-between the keyboard and USB port.

Plug the PS/2 keylogger in-between the keyboard and PS/2 port.

Note: If an external hub is being used, connect the keylogger between the hub and the USB keyboard.

9




Once keystroke data has been recorded, it may be accessed directly or remotely through

WLAN. This section covers only direct access, for remote operation refer to section

Remote access

.

Flash Drive mode

The primary method for viewing recorded data is Flash Drive mode. The keylogger will act as a mass-storage device and pop up as a removable drive. Follow the instructions below.


Plug the USB keylogger in-between the keyboard and USB port...

Use the supplied USB Download

Accelerator...

...and connect the device to a USB port.

...and press the 3-key combination

simultaneously (by default K, B, S)

After a few seconds, the hardware keylogger will automatically get detected as a mass storage device. The operating system will use the standard built-in mass storage driver (MS

Windows 7 in the following examples).

Note: During the first switch to Flash Drive mode, the operating system can ask for drivers. In such case choose automatic driver installation (usually default option).

10



The Flash Drive will contain the file LOG.TXT with a text log of all captured data. Keystroke data is formatted in the same as it would appear on the screen, with special keys in brackets

([Ent], [Esc], [Del] etc.). This file can be viewed and searched with any text editor, such as

Notepad or MS Word.

Switching back to record mode can be achieved by a safe software removal of the flash disk.

Use the systems standard disk removal procedure. For MS Windows, left-click on the Safe

Removal icon in the system tray and select the appropriate drive.

11



Text Menu mode (PS/2 version only)

The PS/2 version features an alternative approach for memory viewing called Text Menu mode. This mode does not require unplugging the device from the PS/2 keyboard, however is a lot slower than Flash Drive mode. To enable Text Menu mode, the keylogger and PS/2 keyboard should be connected in the same way, as in record mode. A text editor is required, such as Notepad.

Run the text editor and make it the active application.

Press the 3-key combination simultaneously

(by default K, B, D)

The keylogger responds by simulating the PS/2 keyboard and will display a text-menu in the editor window.

The displayed main menu shows a summary of memory usage in bytes and pages. The text menu offers a variety of view, search, and configuration options. Use the digit keys to browse around the menu.

Note: do not change the active application while in text-menu mode.

Remote access

This section guides through enabling E-mail reporting and TCP/IP access for the KeyGrabber

Wi-Fi Premium keylogger.

Checklist

Before you start, make sure you have the following data about the Wi-Fi network the keylogger will operate in:






WLAN encryption type (WPA-2, WPA, WEP64/128, or open network)




Make sure you also have an E-mail address the wireless keylogger can send reports to.

Finally, to make the configuration process as simple as possible, install the supplied application KL Tools. The installation process is straightforward, just follow the wizard and answer a few standard questions.

Configuration

The KeyGrabber Wi-Fi Premium can be configured and operated entirely from the KL Tools.

Launch the application, select the device model, and choose to configure your device. The application will first display a keystroke logging configuration dialog, and then a time configuration dialog. If changing the default password, memorize or note the new values, otherwise access to the internal memory will not be possible. If unsure about a certain configuration option, leave the default value.

13



Keystroke logging configuration Time-stamping module configuration

Finally, a Wi-Fi configuration dialog will be shown. Enter the data allowing the keylogger to connect to the WLAN

Access Point:






WLAN encryption type




Remember, that these strings are case-sensitive.

If the WLAN Access Point does not allow Auto-IP configuration through DHCP, provide a static IP address, network mask, gateway address, and DNS information.

To receive E-mail reports containing keystroke data, supply your E-mail address. You may adjust the reporting interval and report size.

When finished, make sure the device is connected as in record mode. KL Tools will automatically create configuration files (CONFIG.TXT, TIME.TXT, WIFI.TXT), prompt for enabling Flash Drive mode, and copy the files to the keyloggers Flash Drive.

14



E-mail reporting

The KeyGrabber Wi-Fi Premium will send E-mail reports to the specified recipient address, by default every hour. Besides logged keystroke data, the report will contain Access Point information, IP configuration, and time-stamps.

The report size and interval may be set by configuring the keylogger through the file

WIFI.TXT. Use KL Tools to do this, or view section

Configuration files

.

15



On-demand access

The KeyGrabber Wi-Fi Premium offers on-demand access via TCP/IP from any computer connected to the network. This feature is usually limited to the Local Area Network, unless your local network segment is visible globally. To access the keylogger remotely, launch KL

Tools, select the proper device version, and navigate through the wizard to remote access.

The Wi-Fi Control Center will be shown.

A remote device needs to be added first. This can be done by clicking the Add Device icon, and supplying the IP address, name (optional), and device password. The password must match the local 3-key combination defined in the devices CONFIG.TXT (K, B, S by default for the USB version, K, B, D by default for the PS/2 version).

The IP address of the remote device can be obtained in a few ways:



from an E-mail report (see section

E-mail reporting

)



from the device configuration (if using static IP)



from the Access Point configuration (if using Auto-IP)

If the IP address is unknown, the Search Local Network option can be used. This feature will send a broadcast signal to all devices in the Local Area Network, to which remote keyloggers

16



should respond. Make sure that no firewall blocks UDP communication, otherwise the procedure will fail.

Once a remote device is added, the log may be retrieved using the Download Log option.

If interested in other parts of the remote log file than the most recent 50 kB, use the Download

Log Chunk option. This will display a dialog, allowing downloading any part of the remote log file.

17



KL Tools offers a wide variety of options, available at a single mouse-click:



E-mail and WWW search



Encoding and layout conversion



Document searching



Document exporting



Communication with remote device



Multiple device handling

Using KL Tools you can communicate with multiple Wi-Fi hardware keyloggers, allowing creating entire networks of wireless keyloggers. This solution is particularly recommended for monitoring several computers in a household, or controlling employee productivity in companies.

18



Clock configuration

It is necessary to configure the built-in clock module for getting correct date and time-stamps.

This task can be performed by KL Tools (recommended), or can be done manually.

To configure the internal clock using KL Tools, launch the application, select the device model, and choose to configure the device. The application will display a time and date configuration dialog. Make sure date and time stamping is enabled, and that the Set time and

date checkbox is clicked. Select the desired time format, and move to the succeeding dialogs.

KL Tools will guide you through enabling Flash

Drive mode, and placing the configuration file

TIME.TXT on the internal flash disk.

The clock can also be configured manually, without using KL Tools. To do this, a text file named TIME.TXT should be prepared with the following format:

Year=2010

Month=4

Day=1

Hour=12

Minute=34

Second=56

Format=PM

The fields should contain the current time and date. The field Format allows distinguishing between A.M., P.M., and 24-hour time (use the value AM, PM, or 24). After the file has been prepared, switch to Flash Drive mode and copy the file TIME.TXT to the root folder of the flash disk. For the PS/2 version, the USB Download Accelerator has to be used to switch to

Flash Drive mode.

19



After copying the file, safely remove the Flash Drive. The new clock configuration will be loaded on next power-up.

The clock configuration file must be named TIME.TXT and must be placed in the root folder.

Variable and value strings are case insensitive, however they must match the options listed below.



Year sets the clock year value. Valid range is from 2000 to 2099.



Month sets the clock month value. Valid range is from 1 (January) to 12 (December).



Day sets the clock day value. Valid range is from 1 to 31. If the specified day exceeds the maximum number of days in the specified month, the next valid day value will be chosen.



Hour sets the clock hour value. Valid range is from 1 to 12 for 12-hour time

(A.M./P.M.), and 0 to 23 for 24-hour time.



Minute sets the clock minute value. Valid range is from 0 to 59.



Second sets the clock second value. Valid range is from 0 to 59.



Format sets the time format. Valid values are AM, PM, and 24. If AM is chosen, the 12hour format is selected and the specified hour is treated as before noon. If PM is chosen, the 12-hour format is selected and the specified hour is treated as after noon.

If 24 is chosen, the 24-hour format is selected and the specified hour is treated as 24hour format.

Sample TIME.TXT for 12-hour time:

Year=2010

Month=10

Day=25

Hour=5

Minute=51

Second=43

Format=PM

Sample TIME.TXT for 24-hour time:

Year=2010

Month=10

Day=25

Hour=17

Minute=51

Second=43

Format=24

Configuration files

The KeyGrabber Wi-Fi Premium is configured via three text files placed on the internal Flash

Drive:



CONFIG.TXT



TIME.TXT



WIFI.TXT

(configures key-logging parameters)

(configures the internal clock for time-stamping)

(configures Wi-Fi functionality)

These files should contain configuration parameters, placed in successive lines in the following format:

Parameter1=Value

Parameter2=Value

Parameter3=Value

…

Example of WIFI.TXT

WiFNetwork=MyNetwork


WiFiEncryption=WPA2

[email protected]

These configuration files must be placed in the device internal memory using Flash Drive mode.

Device configuration can be performed by KL Tools, or manually by the user. KL Tools performs the same operation as would be done manually, that is creates the configuration files, requests switching to Flash Drive mode, and copies the files to the flash disk.

Creating configuration files manually may be necessary on systems not supported by KL

Tools, such as Mac OS or Linux.

It is possible to enable a national layout for language-adapted keyboards, such as

French, German etc. This will allow national characters to get logged properly (including those with Alt Gr), such as ö, æ, ß, ó etc. The following example demonstrates the advantages of applying the German national layout.

Text logged without layout Text logged with layout

Kezlogger )PS-2 / USB= KeyLogger (PS/2 & USB)

To enable a national layout, the appropriate layout file named LAYOUT.USB (for USB version) or LAYOUT.PS2 (for PS/2 version) must be placed on the flash disks root folder. The file must be copied in Flash Drive mode. Layout files may be obtained from the CD-ROM attached with the device.


To enable the layout safely remove the flash disk. During the next power-up, the layout file will be loaded automatically.

I cannot retrieve the log using KL Tools


1. Have you added the remote device to the device list in KL Tools by providing its IP address?

2. Has the remote device established a connection to the Access Point? Check if you are receiving E-mail reports.

3. Have you performed a communication test? Right-click on the device in KL Tools and select Test Communication.

4. Have you performed a network search? Run a network search from KL Tools.

5. Is a firewall blocking communication? Check if the TCP and UDP ports (default 25999 and 25998) are available for communication.

6. Have you provided the correct 3-key combination? The remote device configuration must match the data entered in KL Tools (default values are KBS or KBD).

7. Is the remote device located in the same LAN segment as the host computer? If not,

TCP/IP communication will not work.

Problems with time-stamps

Set the correct time using KL Tools or by creating a clock configuration file TIME.TXT. Make sure you have not disabled time-stamping. Refer to the

Clock configuration

section for detailed instructions.

Problems with logging national characters

Please check if you have downloaded the correct layout file and copied it to the flash disk root directory? If not, please check the


section.

The keylogger does not switch to Flash Drive mode (USB version)


1. Is the keylogger inserted between the keyboard and the keyboard port on the PC or hub?

2. Is your 3-key combination correct?

3. Are you pressing the 3 keys simultaneously? The 3-key combination will not be accepted if pressed sequentially.

The keyboard doesn’t work in Flash Drive mode (USB version)

This is normal behavior. In Flash Drive mode, the keylogger will install the removable disk instead of the keyboard. Use the mouse to copy the log file to the hard drive, then restore normal operation. Alternatively, you may connect the keyboard to a different USB port after switching to Flash Drive mode.

The mouse and keyboard don’t work in Flash Drive mode (USB version)

This can happen on wireless keyboards and keyboard/mouse combos. In Flash Drive mode, the keylogger will install the removable disk instead of the keyboard/mouse combo. To get around this, connect the keyboard/mouse to a different USB port after switching to Flash

Drive mode.

The USB Download Accelerator does not work (PS/2 version)


1. Is the USB Download Accelerator inserted firmly between the keylogger and the USB port?

2. Have you left the keyboard connected to the keylogger? Disconnect the keyboard.

3. Are you giving the device enough time to install? Flash disk installation can take up to

30 seconds, especially during first-time installation.

4.

Are you sure you haven’t disabled USB mode while configuring the device? Check this using the Text Menu.

Problems with detecting the PS/2 keyboard during system startup (PS/2 version)

Some systems try to enumerate the keylogger as a USB device before initializing the keyboard. In certain cases on such systems, the keylogger may attempt to switch to Flash

Drive mode, disabling the PS/2 keyboard. A simple solution to this problem is to disable USB mode through the configurations options in the Text Menu.

Can I run KL Tools on Mac OS or Linux?

KL Tools is currently only available for MS Windows. For configuring the device under Mac

OS or Linux, the configuration files CONFIG.TXT, WIFI.TXT, and TIME.TXT must be created manually, using a text editor.

I’ve checked everything, nothing helps!

If you are still experiencing problems, please do the following:

1. Check if the problem appears on a different keyboard.

2. Check if the problem appears on a different computer.

3. Contact the dealer you have purchased the device from. Please supply all necessary information (keyboard model and manufacturer, OS type and version, and a short description of the problem).
