| 732506 | 2008-12-26 00:20:00 | Rootkit found in files ending 3digraph.dll & others similar. Also: C\Windows\1386\DRWatson.EX_\FAULTH.DLL There is still a reboot & scan option after about 8 mins even after the virus database has been updated, more than once. Is this a real problem or a false positive? Files are islolated to vault but concerned to delete. Obviously using another 'puter. Has anyone experienced these particular files? If it is a known virus/viruses how to fix it\them? Thanks |

| 732509 | 2009-01-02 01:50:00 | You "may" still have a Rootkit - I wouldn't trust any antivirus regarding rootkits, they are designed to "hide" and many antivirus programs simply cant find them. Even Nod32 which is VERY good, has been known to miss some. Download Sophos Anti rootkit (dl4u.savefile.com)--- I've uploaded it another file sharing site, as you have to sign up to Sophos otherwise to get it (it is free) - Download the zipped file, extract the file then install and run sarsfx.exe. Set it scanning - it will take a while as it scans every reg key as well as every file in your PC. It will detect any Rootkits if they are there. |
