Harlan,
Why don't you try Adaware first and see for yourself? We have run tests with keylogger detection and adaware detected 90% of them. Adaware does not rely on whether a software uses a string for the "remove Programs" listing but rather by unique file names, locations (most keyloggers install into the %system root%) and by their unique cslid.
