The objective of a secret keylogger program or spyware is generally to steal your sensitive information and send it to the hacker. This is usually achieved by secretly sending emails from your computer containing your sensitive information. For this purpose, the keylogger program or spyware or virus program may have a small email client incorporated therein. Thus, your sensitive information such as your usernames, passwords, bank account details, credit card information, and your keystrokes, may first be collected by such a stealthy program, and then secretly sent by email to an unknown address. Sometimes, such secret programs may even use your regular email clients for sending such emails to the hacker. Thus, it may be desirable to monitor the outgoing emails from your computer to control what information is being sent unauthorizedly from it by spyware programs and secret keylogger programs that might have got installed on your computer in a stealthy manner.
