Sounds like he's trying to write the equivalent of a keystroke tracker to
record people's login passwords on a system where it shows the letter you
just typed but hides the other letters.  If each keystroke triggers a
snapshot during the log-off stage, he could conceivably set it up so that
everyone that used that computer would inadvertently store their passwords
in picture form on disk.  Sounds like hacker stuff to me. =P.
