The REAL Napster

Webroot Spysweeper has been able to detect, thwart and remove rootkits now for months. What took McAfee so long?

sure but thats a. not a Mcafee Product and b. its not free

The point i was making is Mcafee is at last doing something about rootkits, sometimes corps like to stick to one provider when possible so if there are incompabilites there is no push and shoving about who's software is at fault
