Y'all are going to laugh. This is something that could only happen to me.
My kiddo is getting older so I planned to start monitoring her computer activity with a keylogger. I purchased one from Hacker Warehouse for $60. It requires a three-key combination to be pressed in order to open up the log... and I've forgotten what I set it to. I'm not a "creature of habit" when it comes to passwords, so it could be literally anything. I've tried tons of them already.
A friend told me I might be able to write a macro script for Auto Hotkey that phases through all the possible three-key combinations (excluding ones that use duplicate letters) but I have no idea how I'd go about doing that. I've tried reaching out to a tech support line that charged me $20 just to tell me I'd have to either buy a new keylogger or cycle through all the combinations manually. I called the company and they're not willing to replace it.
Could any of you geeks help me out? I'm tech-savvy enough that I won't need every little detail explained to me, but I have no idea how I'd go about doing something like this or even where I would go to find someone who can. I feel like an absolute moron. I am definitely not looking forward to telling my husband that I spent $60 on nothing!
