My brother has been having some trouble with his battle.net account (Got hacked a while back) He changed his pass but now he can't play starcraft because the pass has been changed. So I'm looking for a good key logger scanner and anything else that may help.
I don't see how either of those will help to recover his account. A key logger is only good for the machine it is installed on, unless your machine is the one accessing his account it won't help, unless you intend to install it on a victims machine, which is illegal.
A scanner, what type of scanner? I know when you mentioned it first thing I thought of was a net scanner of some sort something similar to NMAP, which wouldn't help you either, cause it just scans IPs.
Sounds like he needs to call tech support for Starcraft and talk to them directly in order to recover his account.

If he changed his pass and the account was hacked again sounds like he needs to change his email pass as well. _________________

He recovered his account once but it was stolen again so he want's to make sure there are no keyloggers on his computer so when he re recovers his account it will not be stolen again.
Most av scan for keyloggers. This is why CE is sometimes flagged as a keylogger. Try a spyware detector of some type. Sorry I can not suggest any, I've not used em since Adaware was about the only one. _________________

I would try a couple different ones. Spybot Search and destroy and AVG are both free, so give them a shot. Alternatively, back up crucial files if you have any and simply reformat.
