Here is a really cool and safe way to type important data without using your keyboard; using Jitbit Virtual Keyboard.
Jitbit Virtual Keyboard is an on-screen virtual keyboard. Type text with your mouse, trackball or stylus (digital pen used by Tablet PC devices with a touch screen), whenever you are unable to use a physical computer keyboard. Typing sensitive information with keyboards can leave you open to key-loggers attack at times, so what I really love about Jitbit Virtual Keyboard is the fact that it protects your confident data by preventing key-loggers and other remote keystroke trackers from spying your data. With this software you can enter your passwords, personal data, and all sensitive information easily and safely.
In the recent version, Version 1.59, which is making the rounds in the software market these days, these latest changes have been carried out:
- Multi-instance check;
- Transparency fix.

If you need a nice, lightweight tool that can help simulate keystrokes, mouse movements etc, then you have to check out AutoIt.
AutoIt is a freeware BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating the Windows GUI and general scripting. It is a simple tool that can simulate keystrokes, mouse movements and window commands (maximize, minimize, wait for, etc.) in order to automate any windows based task (or even windowed DOS tasks).
It was primarily designed to assist in automatically installing software that cannot be automatically installed by other means. This is most useful during a PC rollout where hundreds or thousands of client machines need to be automatically installed. However, it is not limited to software installation and can be used to automate most simple windows tasks.
Still not sure if this tool is really what you want, Check out what AutoIt can do for you. This tool can:
- Provide a general-purpose scripting language for all Windows versions
- Simulate mouse movements and clicks
- Interact directly with “controls” on a window (set/get text from edit controls, check boxes and radio buttons, select items in drop-down lists, etc.)
- Create complex user interfaces (GUIs)
- Provide a scriptable RunAs function for Windows 2000/XP/2003
And Lots More!
