ZeroAccess/Sirefef is a sophisticated kernel-mode rootkit that gets installed when a ZeroAccess dropper gets executed. Initially, the dropper checks to see whether it is running on a 32- or a 64-bit machine by querrying the ZWQueryInformationProcess api. If it runs on a system that has UAC enabled, the malware manipulates the system to make a legit application look as if it requires escalation.

If your system has become infected, the tools listed below should aid you in repairing the damage. Symantec now offers a Spyware & Virus Removal service.
