More on that (from Security Wire Digest,
http://infosecuritymag.bellevue.com):
> *JUDGE ORDERS FBI TO DISCLOSE KEYSTROKE CAPTURE METHOD
>
> A federal judge in New Jersey ordered the FBI to disclose how it
> logged the keystrokes of Nicodemo "Little Nicky" Scarfo, who's
> charged with running illegal gambling and loan-sharking operations
> for the Gambino crime family. Defense lawyers challenged the FBI's
> use of a keystroke logger to obtain the password and encryption keys
> used by the Scarfo on his office PC, saying a keystroke logger falls
> outside the scope of a standard search warrant. Judge Nicholas
> Politan ordered the FBI to produce details on the keystroke logging
> technique, saying he needed more information to determine the
> legality of the process. The FBI has until Aug. 31 to comply with
> the order.
