Games wanting to copy my keystrokes etc.

Todays game, Superior Save, as well as a couple of previous games will not play unless I allow them to copy my keystrokes etc. My husband does not feel this is safe. Is there a way to disable this or do I need to uninstall the game?

hello

i know that the giveaway team checks every download thay offer for viruses and such
so i would think it is safe

so to me a game needs access to your mouse and keyboard to work and something like
Zemana AntiLogger would warn you about it if the software is not on a
"whitelist" of known safe software so not all software is on the list and you have
to make a choice or report it to the security software maker to have them add it to
the list or check it to see if it's safe for you

most security software support will help you with something like this

if there was a keylogger in something offerd here i think you would read a uproar over it
all over the place

thanks

James

Gillie, I just played a couple of levels to see what you were talking about: I just saw it ask you to click the mouse button; no key strokes mentioned.
