FTP options

 

Using FTP instead of e-mail is recommended when Keylogger is installed on a large number of computers. Perfect Keylogger creates a new folder on the FTP server for every upload session. The name of the folder is calculated from the current date. Keylogger creates report.txt file in each folder, so you can find out the monitored computer and user name from there.

If you want to use the FTP Delivery feature, you have to create a new or use your existing FTP account. There are many free FTP services on the Internet, for example www.0catch.com or www.wtcsites.com. After you will  create your FTP account, please enter the FTP host name, your account name and password in the Perfect Keylogger's FTP Options window. The example is available on the screenshot above.

Try to upload logs by FTP every... - check this option, if you want to upload logs by FTP. Enter the desired time span (number of hours and minutes) between uploads of the log.

Include... - upload keystroke log, screenshots or web log, which were created since the last log was uploaded.

Upload only when log size is more than... - lets you to set minimum log size before uploading will begin.

Stealth uploading using Internet Explorer - check this option, if you want to make Keylogger invisible for the firewall program. If checked, the internet connection to the FTP server will be opened by IE and it will be accepted by the firewall. This option is not available in Windows Vista7!

Clear logs after successful uploading - clears log files on the monitored computer after uploading by FTP.


Host name - name or address of the FTP server. Usually you can ask your service provider for the host name. Examples: www.0catch.com, ftp.prohosting.net .

Username - name of the FTP user. This is the name, which you chose when you created your FTP account.

Password - the password for your FTP account.

Remote dir - type folder path to the FTP server, where you want to store your logs. It can be an absolute or a relative path. Absolute path beginning from "/". Example: "/keylogs". Symbol "/" means the root directory of the server. Relative paths are calculated relative to the initial FTP directory. Example: "keylogs". Usually the initial FTP directory is the root directory, but there can be exceptions. You can leave this field blank to store logs in the initial directory, or try to use slash (/).

Use passive mode - each file transfer (upload or download) needs an additional connection for the data stream. Normally (in "active" mode), the server establishes this connection. In "passive" mode, however, the client establishes the connection. This may be necessary through some firewalls, which do not allow connections from outside.

Test FTP - click to test your FTP settings. Perfect Keylogger will create "Perfect Keylogger Test" folder on the server and "readme.txt" file inside that folder.

When you download logs from the FTP onto your PC, launch Log Viewer and select the "Open Log" command. Browse for the folder containing logs to view them.

Note: Keylogger uses Internet Explorer's settings for proxy server.
