Oh I know... they use it for good reasons.

The problem is:
1) Obviously this makes it hard for Microsoft to patch.
2) (and most relevant) -- It's not that it's good or bad, it's that it's in your system and you had no clue. Well I mean, you do -- but the thing is -- it's next-to-impossible to know there's a rootkit installed on your system.

kthx Blind, the BleepingComputer topic has been closed due to inactivity.

finally, now just reformat and end this shit.

My suggestion. Download AnVir Task Manager. When you run it, AnVir shows you all startup programs and Windows processes, so you’ll find harmful file in a minute. I always use it when I clean one’s PC. Sorry for the offtopic.
