LiveCD are good.  You can take out the harddisk, start from a livecd. That way you are free from a software keylogger, but not from a hardware keylogger.

You could just change the BIOS settings to boot from the disc. You don't have to actually take the HDD out to do it.
mgburks Is he's referring to something different than what you are pointing out..?

Reinstall. If the keylogger is well made and not spread out too much you will never detect it.
I just want to know is can't I look into all running processes manually to check whether a suspicious process in running in background that might be a keylogger..?
Obviously you won't see something called 'keylogger.exe', that would be too easy.
They usually conceal themselves under normal looking names.

You should use Kaspersky Internet Security, it's great!
Will it detect key loggers..! because many antivirus fails.. when it comes to dealing with sophisticated keylogs and I'm quite skeptical that kaspersky will be an exception

If you want to remove keyloggers and rootkits the best way is to create a liveCD with a good antimalware program on it. I would recommend superantispyware or malwarebytes.

If you don't know how to create one just google it
I googled a lot before posting here :p and also created this thread so that it can help me in research about the necessary software are other related  stuff..!

this should work for you

Keylogger can be physical or software. There are even some ways to try to detect what you type based on sound.  I dont know how far you want to go;

LiveCD are good.  You can take out the harddisk, start from a livecd. That way you are free from a software keylogger, but not from a hardware keylogger.

Antother thing you can do to reduce risk is decentralize your valuable data. Put one data (bitcoin wallet?) in one machine, other in other machine.

Be very careful with proprietary software you install , a lot of companies, criminals and governments are interested in making spyware and Trojans - not to your benefit.
.
 Hardware/Physical keylog is not a concern to me, I use MY own PC which no one else uses sometimes a family member of friend might use it, but they will not put any such device in my PC ...! so here my only concern is software keylog.

Pretty much agree with all the posts above and through the thread
Lot of people know their stuff
I would also recommend using hijackthis if you determine that the Keylogger is being a stubborn process to delete.
Also helps to keep an original list so you can tell what new processes might be affecting your PC if a bug appears

download and run process explorer by sysinternals and check which ip address a process is connecting to.
install private firewall to block or filter various apps.you can also block the suspicious ip addresses

I just want to know is can't I look into all running processes manually to check whether a suspicious process in running in background that might be a keylogger..?

Many advanced malware know how to conceal their identity by either using phony names that sound genuine processes - such as 'System Host', 'Browser Extension', 'Google Update Service' etc.  (and maybe a different name every time they run), and some even do not appear on the process list!
That's called Rootkit (which I mentioned a few posts back). When you check for keyloggers, it is also imp to check for Rootkits.

The only drawback is that injecting the malicious code by patching the BIOS requires root privileges on or physical access to the system.

just be careful nextime rob
greedy people will still stole something even if its 1 cent
Hmm i'll try to be more conscious, and will suggest you to do it too ..!

im using iphone how the fuck they can install keylogger on my phone? Grin
or they can?
hopefuly they are not Smiley

If you didnt jailbreak it and you only install software from the official store you are pretty safe. Not 100% but close enough. The question is: if you didnt jailbreak it, you would not be using it for Bitcoins since Apple does not like them for some reason (are they afraid?). So I assume you did a jailbreak. In that case, be very carefull what you let on your phone. Without the jailbreak apple does all the checking for you, with the jailbreak you have to check the software yourself. For most people this is impossible.
Oh... and even without jailbreak, apple might install a keylogger, just because, you know, for marketing, just in case... phones, cant trust them.

i did jailbreak it before when im in ios 6.something my phone has restored last few weeks and it became ios 7 now and im using it right now
how the hell they dont like bitcoin? i mean there is a few application from apps store which is related to BTC like bitcoin comunity and many more

I dont know why, all I know is that they removed all bitcoin wallets from their AppStore.

http://www.pcworld.com/article/2095060/apple-removes-blockchain-last-bitcoin-wallet-app-from-mobile-store.html

They still allow stuff that is related but not "handling" bitcoins. So you can watch charts and forums etc, but you cant store coins on your iPhone without a jailbreak.

yeah that is why im using blockchain only and coinbase
with this phone i will be able to get in touch with bitcoin world and stuff since my laptop has been destroyed by my sister in law child while watching finding nemo Cheesy

Some hacked my Cloubet acc/ and withdrew little amount I had there..!  I'm lil afraid what if the hacker gets all the Passwords i use..!
 I scanned my PC for viruses.. and Found nothing , I use Avast[yeah that sucks but most of the Anti-viruses can't catch Keyloggers] I still don't know whether the hacker got the info using Phishing , Keylogger or any other technique .. I searched Running Processes manually in task bar but can't say if its running there or not..!

TLDR; I want to know how to dectect if keylogger is installed on my PC

First step:

1. Back up everything important.
2. Install linux, if you're a beginner - you could start with Ubuntu.

Why you might ask? Because linux in general are safer. Also it's a nice learning experience.

AVG catches keyloggers great, dont know what you talking about, try malwarebytes and hijackthis and process explorere to see anything running hidden.
Are you sure AVG is worth giving a shot..! because I used it in past.. and it sucks..!
Use Malwarebytes instead. And run TDSS-Killer which i previously linked.
That combination will clean your computer from most malware.

Hacker's IP address : 83.187.130.118.

now what, a legal case.?

Are you willing to go to estonia and sue him?
that is the f*c*in problem why these hackers don't care about what they doing is unethical, they are not worried about what might happen to them, try to steal money offline, and you'll get fu

I doubt if it is only keylogger. I presume if there is keylogger there is a rootkit in there. Which very hard to remove. Just reformat. Don't install java. Don't open any attachments and executable files. Install decent antivirus and firewall. Change all your passwords. No worries. Good sleep at night  Smiley

You might, you might not. Depends on what you do on the internet. If you only download stuff from legit places and only open attachments in e-mail from trusted persons, the chances of you being infected isn't that high.
Sometimes even taking all the security measures can't help..! the spam links are everywhere... sometimes an attachment can f*k you...! I still can't figure out how the hacker got my pass... I never clicked any suspicious link neither i downloaded anything in last couple of weeks..! I have to figure that out..!

Zemana is good.

Also scan for Rootkits. They're advanced form of malware that go unnoticed by conventional antivirus scanners. Many reputed antivirus companies build specialized anti-rootkit scanners and distribute for free. You won't need to install them in most cases, just download and run!

PS: Also, if you're OK with paid softwares, I would recommend Kaspersky Internet Security over Avast. I was using Avast myself but for a few years I've switched to Kaspersky and the difference is like day and night.

any 1337 can easily make stuff that will be detectable by anti-virus not before some months. Better use live linux session for sensitive pass

Some hacked my Cloubet acc/ and withdrew little amount I had there..!  I'm lil afraid what if the hacker gets all the Passwords i use..!
 I scanned my PC for viruses.. and Found nothing , I use Avast[yeah that sucks but most of the Anti-viruses can't catch Keyloggers] I still don't know whether the hacker got the info using Phishing , Keylogger or any other technique .. I searched Running Processes manually in task bar but can't say if its running there or not..!

TLDR; I want to know how to dectect if keylogger is installed on my PC
