Google Chrome Keylogger
The auto-suggest feature of Google’s new Chrome browser does more than just help users get where they are going.
Basically Google is sending everything you type in the address and search bar back to their servers, even before you hit enter. Some are all scared that they privacy is being violated, but the reality of it is, is that Google already knows everything about you.
Google intends to retain some of that data even after it provides the promised suggestions. A Google representative told CNET News.com that the company plans to store about two percent of that data, along with the IP address of the computer that typed it.
IE 8 is going to have a keylogger as well, and Firefox will probably follow shortly after.
