POPSFree anti-rootkit software Panda AntiRootkit is a free utility that performs in-depth scans of your computer in search for hidden resources, identifying and disinfecting known and unknown rootkits. Unlike other rootkit utilities which merely "reveal" hidden objects, Panda AntiRootkit positively identifies known and unknown rootkits and gives the option of removing them, including their associated registry entries, processes and files. In addition Panda AntiRootkit has an Exhaustive Scan Monitor (requires reboot) capable of monitoring drivers and processes loading at boot time. It's unique technology does this at a lower level than any other AntiRootkit utility, therefore revealing all hiding techniques used by the latest generation rootkits. Panda AntiRootkit discovers hidden files, registry entries, drivers, processes, modules, SDT modifications, EAT hooks, modifications to IDT, non-standard INT2E, non-standard SYSENTER, IRP hooks, and much more.

POPSGizmo's Top Picks Of The Best Tech Resources And Utilities
Zero-cost, three-step procedure if your PC might have become infected as the result of installing a program you downloaded. (a) First, upload the installation file of the program you installed to Jotti.org for a free scan. Jotti will then run it through more than a dozen malware scanners and let you know if there is a problem. If Jotti determines that your file is clean, it doesn't mean that there is no infection. It simply means that it's unlikely there is an infection, and that folks, is a very comforting finding. (b) Download and run the free Panda Rootkit detector . Again, a clean scan is not a 100% guarantee of no infection, but should add greatly to your confidence. Panda doesn't run on Vista, so Vista users should use the BlackLight anti-rootkit scanner instead. (c) Finally, download HijackThis from this page , and follow the instructions on the same page which tell you how to create a log that you can paste to web forums.

POPSTips for Linux Explorers There are more tips for each topic at the site. Linux is free, but it takes more than an installation disc. Some of the things I had to learn from the start, burning iso, partitioning discs, and black screen command operation and command lines. linux can also run along side windows, and/or run off a live boot CD. I'm still green, so all of the tips I find help. This seems like a great site for anyone curious or interested in Linux
