1. Keyloggers are definitely malicious. 2. Writing a program 'in the manner of a keylogger' is also by definition malicious. Why wouldn't you want your program to be discoverable/managable by the user? If you are looking to hide your program from users, you want to hide it for a reason.....

Make a C program use less CPU.

10 Jan 2012 by Richard MacCutchan

There is no C code that you can add to a program to use less CPU. It will use as much CPU as required by the execution of the instructions in the program. Maybe you need to explain in better detail exactly what problem you are trying to solve, just as long as it's not about hacking.

Make a C program use less CPU.

10 Jan 2012 by fjdiewornncalwe

The best way for you to make your application to use less CPU and resources is to use this really cool exit(); function. It works really well. You'll find that your application will sleep really well and use virtually no resources.

'this' usage: Should I always use it or not?

27 Aug 2010 by Kunal Chowdhury «IN»

Hi cjb110,That's a very good question. I don't feel it as useful every time calling "this". You should use the keyword "this" only when it is require.Suppose, in the following case:public class Person{ private string fullName; public Person(string fullName) { ...

'this' usage: Should I always use it or not?

The only difference it makes, is that it gives you some intellisense, and explicitly scopes what would otherwise be implicit. The compiler will ignore it.

'this' usage: Should I always use it or not?

27 Aug 2010 by cjb110

When using the this keyword to reference methods/variables in the current class instance does it make any difference at all if I use it or not? (I mean where I could use it, not where I should or have to use it)I tend to declare my internal/privates with a leading '_', so I don't need this...

The linker uses the narrowest scope when resolving names. The this keyword (and in VB, the Me keyword) tells the linker to use the class-level object, even if there is a local object with the same name. this is also used for declaring extension methods in C#, but that's pretty arcane and not...
