Hi Gerry,
Yes, I agree with you about the technical side of reading and
troubkeshooting with rootkit, but as the name says Rootkit revealer. If there
is a Rootkit it will be picked up by the tool and let the OP remove it or
seek further help but for the MD5, API ...and more of the registry side of
things if the OP need to go further to investigate these keys and if they
belong to the infection revealed by the Tool!
How to use Rootkit Revealer:

Or the OP can use this Rootkit detector by F-Secure BlackLight

Happy new year to you and All.
Regards,
nass

do you have any idea as to what you just said?
people are dying from disease and being bombed on an hourly basis,,, i got a feeling your wishes
wont reach them nass. you could drop everything and go help them, or not. wishing people
happy new year just dont cut it anymore in this crazy world, is why i left the party i was at,, it
was all just soooooo false,, and strictly alcohol and drug based;; nothing real about it at all,,
but there is definately something real about the suffering going on regarding this planet and its
occupants.
(sorry nass,, its just that i saw so many people jumping up and down, all bombed outta their
brains, and i calculated that each spent at least $70 for the privelige, and then i started thinking
about all the kids i see on the news in african countries... and the kids with limbs blown off of
their bodies because their parents (adults) just cant seem to get their acts together.
oh well,, happy new year nass.

We all have to start somewhere but do you not think RootkitRevealer
v1.71 needs skills way beyond those of most users seeking help here? I
found the Article by Bryce Cogswell and Mark Russinovich interesting but
I suspect it would be extremly difficult to use for me to use.

Best wishes for the New Year.

please excuse my use of the thread,,, i have just got home from party mode for ny's eve.. (soon
saw the hypocrites and the whole intent, so i left)

but my thoughts are that wouldnt it be better to point ppl away from ie and toward items like
firefox and a myriad of others? i find this solves many problems. ie is just too vulnerable
to everything...... and i am sure the poster would find it easier to use f/f than to get into
technical territory that he or she may or may not understand. using something that is tried and
true like Ccleaner is much more convenient for getting rid of history and cookies and etc as well,,
it can also be set to remove things at a higher level than the silly recycle bin.
i also believe that mentioning or pointing people to the registry without knowledge is simply
asking for trouble, i dont even mess in there myself, because i know i am not savvy enough to do so
and dont want to wreck my computer with one simple typo.

is up to you frank.
