=== Automatic form filler programs === {{Main|Form filler}} Automatic form-filling programs may prevent keylogging by removing the requirement for a user to type personal details and passwords using the keyboard. [[Form filler]]s are primarily designed for [[Web browser]]s to fill in checkout pages and log users into their accounts. Once the user's account and [[credit card]] information has been entered into the program, it will be automatically entered into forms without ever using the keyboard or [[Clipboard (software)|clipboard]], thereby reducing the possibility that private data is being recorded. However, someone with physical access to the machine may still be able to install software that can intercept this information elsewhere in the operating system or while in transit on the network. ([[Transport Layer Security]] (TLS) reduces the risk that data in transit may be intercepted by [[Packet analyzer|network sniffers]] and [[Proxy server|proxy tools]].)
