DownloadStudio Audio/Video Capture uses a system keyboard hook. This is a useful feature for you to stop recording by pressing the CTRL+F9 keys on your keyboard. This is NOT a keyboard “logger”. Keyboard loggers record your keystrokes and send them to a web site. No keyboard information is recorded by DownloadStudio, nor is any keyboard information sent to Conceiva or to any other web site. It merely looks for CTRL+F9 and then stops recording. It does not affect the performance of your computer.
