    Thanks for the link, Charles. Very interesting reading. I downloaded F-Secure's Blacklight beta too and will give it a try.

    Edit: I just ran the F-Secure Blacklight Rootkit Elimination Tool (beta) and I'm pleased I had a clean report. It appears Blacklight doesn't even install; it simply runs. :)

    Nice to know.
    I have noticed that rootkit revealer gets detected as a virus by other tools and you have to be careful when you scan if you save it . Gonna have to see what happens with blacklight.
