I'm looking for a good free hidden keylogger that will work on pc, I also need one that will work on MAC (doesn't necessarily have to be the same program). Can anyone offer any solutions? thanks.

Have you tried using this magical thing called google?
I don't know much about Winshit or Appleshit, but in a Linux desktop environment running X windows this is somewhat easy. Slip xev in their ~/.xinitrc and have it output to a text file (I assume you have at least user access): x="xev > /home/user/.secret_folder_where_you_will_hide_the/xev.log"; echo $x >> /home/user/.xinitrc
You'll want to modify their DE/WM config to start processes named "xev" as hidden.
Now, you'll need some way of getting this log sent to your email. You could just slip the sendmail command somewhere in the ~/.bash_logout; but this is going to send you an ugly, complicated log of not only the keys pressed, but the mouse movement and clicks too. You probably don't want all that. Your best bet is to whip up some PERL or Bash script and add it to their ~/.bash_logout or /etc/cron.daily/ (requires root) that greps and formats the xev.log and emails it to yourself using SMTP. That's a lot of work to just pull a petty prank on your friends and family and I'm not going to keep going on about this. You should be able to google the rest yourself from the information I've given. DO NOT try this on the macbooks in an Apple store, you will get caught!
