I play an online game that some people like to install keyloggers on to each ohters computers and hack their accounts..was wondering if there was a good scanner/remover that will detect even homemade keyloggers and such besides spybot and adaware?

The problem your going to find is that most antivirus runs through a database of know loggers in this case. A home made key logger probably wouldn't be in the database. Have you considered a firewall to try to prevent this before it occurs.

Also most antivirus will search for keyloggers not just spyware and adaware.
