How to outsmart a keylogger

If your faced with the thought that someone has placed a keylogger on your computer and hacking you there is one way to get around it. You can change your passwords to sites but, if they are getting it non stop, then what good does it do? There are basically two ways you can change your password that the keylogger will not be able to get.

The first way is don't ever type your password just have a certain text somewhere that you can simply copy and paste the password in. Since your not typing it then it should not be able to read it.

System Restore-- What it "restores"

Well, those of you that know me, are well aware of the fact that I'm no computer whiz. Heck, I barely scrape by. So on those common occasions where I have a computer mishap. (ie: it's not doing what I want it to, or I somehow broke it) I have a route of attack I take.

Step 1: Yell and scream expletives at said computer
Step 2: Restart. Well because why not really, ya never know what that might fix? I'm a firm believer in "it might fix itself" (fyi: usually... not so much, but I'm not giving up hope yet)

Firefox freezing up. (Not Responding)

Ever since the last upgrade of Firefox(im not sure what version it is even) I constantly get a sort of frozen browser all the time and then I click, click, click and at the very top of the window it will say (not responding). Then if I keep clicking a few times it will eventually work, like it was starting to freeze but it came back to life.

Sorry if the explination sounds weird but that is the best way I can put it into my words for all you experts to try and understand what Im saying. Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas about this?
