Ok, Afterdawn.. I need your help.. my system recently blue-screened then crashed/rebooted... according to microsofts info on the System Error, it was likely a rootkit... I was using Nero 7's NeroVision at the time... I've read several posts that AnyDvd and Sony could have installed rootkits - that reminded me of viewing a couple of discs lately that started up with "Sony" (though I quickly closed them and used a different player)... How can I tell if it was something put in by either of those mentioned above, or something else? And what can I do to fix this please?
Start with F-Secure's Blacklight and RootkitRevealer. There are other anti-rootkit applications out there, but these are a good and free start. https://europe.f-secure.com/blacklight/ http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/RootkitRevealer.html
