Grisoft AVG Anti-Rootkit Beta

by @ 11:56 am. Filed under News, Security

Grisoft AVG Anti-Rootkit 1.0.0.13 Beta released

I am proud to announce that Grisoft has released the AVG Anti-Rookit Beta available at http://beta.grisoft.cz after a registration (which is for free)

It is abled to detect and to remove a lot of rootkits. How good it is you will really know if you have a rootkit on your system ;) The Screenshots below are showing the tests in a VMWare Session where I have installed the Vanquish rootkit which is available at rootkit.com

I really  warn everyone this is a  beta software it may work but you should be careful!

While scanning:

After a scan:

Please report your test results and your opinion about it.

 

Regards,

Vinzenz

    Let’s hope this tools is able to detect valid rootkit existence rather than giving false results.

    It found enough to get rid of the rootkit. ;)
