How can you tell if you have a key logger?

[CompSi]

Run an anti-virus check, this should find it !

Like Ad-Adware?

Keyloggers by design can be and are the hardest software to find. Most times even harder to remove.

Anything indicating you have one?

[mpenney]

I have a file that will not delete. It's stating that it is being used by another program and nothing is being used that would associate it with it.
( I'm also new to keyloggers, trojans, etc. Avast always catching them before they are downloaded.

Also, what are tracing cookies?

Many thanks to everyone,

This file that won't delete, what's it called, and where is it? Are you sure it's not a file that is required?
