Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Keyloggers are a type of spyware that record all keystrokes made on a computer, including passwords and other sensitive information. Spoofing involves disguising oneself as a trusted source to gain access to sensitive information, while Trojan horses and worms are types of malware that can cause damage to a computer or network. Therefore, keyloggers are the most likely choice here given that Betty's friend had her keystrokes stolen.
