Outer automorphism group of Lie algebra of bounded operators

What is the outer automorphism group of the complex Lie algebra of bounded operators on a complex Hilbert space, with the commutator as Lie bracket? What for the real Lie algebra of bounded antihermitian operators? Does their structure depend on whether the space is finite-dimensional, infinite-dimensional separable, or inseparable? Does it depend on continuity assumptions in appropriate topologies?
