I get a keylogger message from Online Armor whenever I utilise BBC iPlayer.

Sorry, I didn't realise this wasn't a joke!   :blush:

Jim, there's more info on this on the Kaspersky Forums.  Seems you're not alone.

Gill, I'm not familiar with Online Armour, but I assume you deal with the issue OK?

Yes, I simply allowed Online Armor to block the keylogger.

this doesnt sound right and there has to be some mis-identification going on with the antivirus tools.
