Best Keylogger is safe to use (see the FAQ
Is Best Keylogger safe to use?), and you can run Best Keylogger successfully along side any popular antivirus program by adjusting your antivirus settings. The general approach is described next. The exact procedure you use will depend on the antivirus software you have. You can usually find specific instructions for your software in the software's help file, troubleshooting guide, or product website.
To download, install, or run Best Keylogger when your antivirus software is blocking any of those actions, take these steps:
Downloading In most cases, if your antivirus blocks downloading of Best Keylogger, you must temporarily disable internet protection and then download the installation file. In some cases, your antivirus software may allow you to create an exception for the download URL. If you disabled internet protection during downloading, be sure to restore it after the download.
Installing If your antivirus stops or blocks Best Keylogger's installation file from running, you usually need to disable your antivirus before running the file. In some cases, your antivirus software will allow you to create an exception that allows the file to run. If you disabled protection during installation, be sure to enable it after installation.
Running In most cases, if you are running an antivirus program, you must go to your antivirus settings and create an exception to allow Best Keylogger to run on your computer. If you are running Windows 7 or a later version, you should select or enter
C:\ProgramData\BestKey as the program folder the exception is for. If you are running Windows XP, you should select or enter
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BestKey. Sometimes your antivirus will detect Best Keylogger and simply ask you if you want to allow the program to run. In either case, you should set your antivirus to
allow programs in the folder to run and to
remember (always apply) the setting.
