Keylogger
HP has an awful history of 'accidentally' leaving keyloggers onto its
customers' laptops. At least two times this year, HP laptops were
caught with pre-installed keylogger or spyware applications.

I was following a tweet made by a security researcher claiming to have
found a built-in keylogger in several HP laptops, and now he went
public with his findings.

The entire artcle is here.

This kind of thing is one reason I always do my own OS installation,
never relying on a pre-installed system.
