VundoFix V6.5.6. Rootkit Detection and Removal Tools. Rootkits are becoming more prevalent and more difficult to find.

Rootkit Detection and Removal Tools

Technicians need to be aware of the best software tools that will detect and remove this elusive software. Here is a list of rootkit removal tools that will work on the major operating systems. Windows Based Rootkit Revealer Rootkit Revealer is part of the sysinternals suite and is a free portable rootkit scanner. Sophos Rootkit Scanner Sophos offers a suite of security software but most notably they have a free rootkit detector and removal tool available here:Download GMER is a powerful rootkit scanner and usually my first “go-to” rootkit scanner when I suspect suspicious activity above and beyond typical malware. TDSSKiller A great free tool from Kaspersky. Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper Beta This is a fairly new application (still in beta!)

Prevx - Customer and Network Security and Breach Management. Malware Domain List - Index. ZeroAccess / Max++ rootkit analysis. Some research from Webroot/Prevx, including self-protection mechanism: The latest generation of a rapidly evolving family of kernel-mode rootkits called, variously, ZeroAccess or Max++, seems to get more powerful and effective with each new variant.

ZeroAccess / Max++ rootkit analysis

The rootkit infects a random system driver, overwriting its code with its own, infected driver, and hijacks the storage driver chain in order to hide its presence on the disk. But its own self-protection mechanism is its most interesting characteristic: It lays a virtual tripwire. I’ve written about this rootkit in a few recent blog posts and in a white paper. On an infected computer, this new driver sets up a device called \Device\svchost.exe, and stores a fake PE file called svchost.exe – get it? When a typical security scanner tries to analyze the rootkit-created svchost.exe file, the rootkit queues an initialized APC into the scanner’s own process, then calls the ExitProcess() function — essentially forcing the scanner to kill itself.
