Publisher's Description
Sophos Anti-Rootkit finds and removes any rootkit that is hidden on your computer.

As part of its complete protection of endpoint computers, Sophos Anti-Virus detects rootkits and prevents them being installed on any of your desktops, laptops and servers.

Sophos Anti-Rootkit provides an extra layer of detection, by safely and reliably detecting and removing any rootkit that might already have secreted itself onto your system.

Using Sophos Anti-Rootkit is straightforward. Whether you use its simple graphical user interface or run it from the command line you can easily detect and eliminate any rootkits on your computer.

Features:

  • Scans running processes, windows registry and local hard drives for rootkits.
  • Identifies known rootkits and selects, by default, files for removal which will remove the rootkit component of the malware without compromising OS integrity.
  • Allows users to remove unidentified hidden files, but does not allow removal of essential system files when hidden by an identified rootkit.
  • Once the user has run a scan, the screen prompts the user through the necessary steps until every rootkit has been removed.
  • Users can switch between the GUI and command-line functionality.
  • Both context sensitive and command-line help are available.

  "Good product"

I'm a self taught user. I like this program and have used it for years. I don't know about removing rootkits but the program will let you know if you have a problem. Personally I prefer to format and reinstall an infected installation. That way I know it's wiped out. The trick is knowing when you need to go that far. It is after all a good 2 day job to format and reload with all the updates. But I have found that even the well paid techies who work for the support centers are more often wrong than not. A lot of things they swear up and down can't be done, I have been doing for years.
