I had a go at developing a simple Windows app that would (temporarily) disable the keyboard hooks that the majority of keyloggers use to capture keystrokes. I had some success, but the program isn't particularly stable and it can cause other applications to crash, but if you only want to log in to a browser and fire off a quick email it might help you.
You can download it (and the Delphi source code) from this URL:

Note that this is *used entirely at your own risk*, please read the instructions carefully. I have left various options configurable so people can play around with settings & see which combinations defeat particular keyloggers.
If anyone fancies trying to debug this and help to create a more stable version please feel free.
One of my friends at my last company was caught out this way when attending the tribunal of an employee who tried to claim unfair dismissal. He had to stand there in court, in front of his boss when the lawyer read out one of his emails: "Don't trust the f**king management team, they're all a bunch of lying yellow-bellied c**ts, particularly X". "X" was his boss who was also attending the tribunal. He never lived it down, thankfully his boss saw the funny side of it.

Don't worry: Bruce Willis and Justin Long will soon get everything back online again...
