Re: RootKit Detectors - Not all = !

I think if we have learnt anything from that infamous thread on the sysinternals forum it is that public rootkit detectors will always lose to private rootkits.

That's said, I see the guys at Castlecops have refused to endorse Rootkit Unhooker for use for some undisclosed reason. I would be inclined to follow their lead.

Very interesting review from castlecops. Too buggy and need more work, lol. The same I can say about all other rkdetectors as well as about castlecops itself.

lol, not so true. private detectors big myth, tools used by ten-hundren people, very funny, what they will detect? you can always say that your private detector is best, because nobody cant say something else. if you think that this thread is 'infamous' then i dont know what you mean under 'famous'. lying people by saying that all rkdetectors are good is not so 'good' idea. i have a real facts you have nothing.

Very buggy software you made, any updates in the future right now your program is pretty useless as you already know.

Your program can't even kill itself, very poor programing I might add. Scrape this program and start over, look forward to a bug free program, your program is interesting nothing, I haven't see before though.

Did you remove the registry entries, and the driver that Rootkit Unhooker Dropped on your pc?

This is a sneaky program, not to be trusted, it makes way to many entries in the registry, and dropping the driver, is trojan like.

One should be told what is going to happen when they click RkUnhooker.exe, Other freeware scanners simply scan that's it, but this one has the actions of a Trojan, writing to the registry, dropping a driver, setting itself, up as a service.

None of the above is told to the user nor is it needed to just scan, your pc.
