First off, thank you for providing the community with your "safe" on-screen-keyboard, it certainly plugs a hole many people aren't even aware of. </p> <p>Unfortunately, as seems to have been discovered with other programs as well (Opera?), some applications won't work as "recipients" of SafeKeys drag/drop operation, in this case i'm talking about TrueCrypt. This is very unfortunate, as passwords to encrypted filesystems are obviously quite "valuable" and there is really no other option in TrueCrypt than to enter your keyphrase using an inherently unsafe keyboard. Now, i know it's definitely not your fault that the people programming TrueCrypt wrote their software the way they did, but maybe there'd be other ways to send a password to a target application than just drag and drop? A software similar to your's, called "mouse only keyboard" seems to use a sort of locked clipboard that cannot be read by keyloggers monitoring your clipboard, maybe this could be an alternative? </p> http://www.aplin.com.au/forum/topic/dragdrop-vs-copypaste#post-6 Sun, 16 Nov 2008 02:06:18 +0000 MurrayDW 6@http://www.aplin.com.au/forum/ <p>First, thank you for writing this utility. It fills a vital security space for computer road warriors.<br /> Out of curiosity, if I enter a password using your virtual keyboard, then copy to the clipboard using CTRL-C, then paste to my password entry box with CTRL-V, is that less secure than using a mouse drag-drop? In other words, can a malicious keylogger know what text I'm cutting and pasting via the clipboard? </p> http://www.aplin.com.au/forum/topic/opera-drag-drop-issues#post-5 Wed, 12 Nov 2008 20:50:57 +0000 neo 5@http://www.aplin.com.au/forum/ <p>I have heard from some users that Neo's SafeKeys cannot drag and drop to the Opera web browser.</p> <p>I have done some investigation into Opera; both testing and extensive online research.</p> <p>In short, the Windows version of Opera does not allow dragging and dropping between itself, and any other application. Opera will only allow dragging and dropping within itself.<br /> This is not a Neo's SafeKeys problem, as any application would have a issue with this. </p> <p>Probably the only hope would be to lobby Opera itself, to get them to allow dragging and dropping from other applications to Opera. </p> <p>Here are two postings on the forums that explain the dragging and dropping limitations (in various ways):<br /> <a href="http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=253332" rel="nofollow">http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=253332</a><br /> <a href="http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=249292" rel="nofollow">http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=249292</a><br /> (I'm sure there are more).</p> <p>Hope this helps explain things.</p> <p>Neo. </p>
