CNET Editors' review
If you find yourself in a situation where you need to monitor someone's online activities, Perfect Keylogger Lite for Mac is a small tool that can effectively record key touches, screenshots, Web history, and chat sessions on your computer.
Once installed, Perfect Keylogger Lite for Mac will hide itself and record key sequences entered by the user. Simultaneously, screenshots are taken at a predefined interval and saved by the program. You have the option to set a shorter interval for certain applications only. If you suspect some interesting activity will take place in a specific application, this function will then yield more screenshots. This program can record visited sites even if private browsing is turned on. To retrieve the recorded information you activate the program with a special customizable combo key. The interface is really Windows-esque, and the icons seem to be directly borrowed from Windows XP interface. The program seems to work as advertised, even though there is no available technical support for the Lite version. Some more attractive features are missing such as password recording, e-mail delivery of log files, and e-mail alerts based on specific keywords, which are available in the Full version.
Perfect Keylogger Lite for Mac seems suitable for parents concerned about their kids' online activities, business owners who like to have complete control, and suspicious husbands and wives. This version offers some basic key logging features, while for $39.95 you can get the full package and support.

"It's the best freeware Mac Keylogger I found online"
Version: Perfect Keylogger Lite 1.1
Pros
Offers basic key logging features for free, and I think it's enough for many home users
Cons
more advanced features, like remote monitoring and other Pro features are in the full version only
Summary
this free keylogger for mac seems to be pretty new and is hard to find
-
"Heh it's really free!"
Version: Perfect Keylogger Lite 1.1
Pros
Just copied this keylogger on my daughter Mac to run.. Seems to be nice and do what it should be doing. It seems to be a lite version with reduced functionality, but it looks good for freeware
Cons
heh more features are welcome.. anyway on the website there is a full version but I did not try that
Summary
Seems to be good for the initial release, will play more with this mac keylogger... there is no nag screen and other limitations, that's good for freeware keylogger, especially on a mac os.. will play more again
