If someone malicously put a keystroke recorder on my computer would they be able to see the master password for LastPass when I enter it?

Yes, they could record your master password, unless you're using the online keyboard: http://helpdesk.lastpass.com/security-options/virtual-keyboard/ for more information.

Another option is multifactor authentication, including:

  1. Grid
  2. YubiKey
  3. Sesame
  4. One Time Passwords

Even if someone grabbed your master password, the second authentication method would prevent them from gaining access to your account.
