Is UnHackMe effective?

http://www.greatis.com/unhackme/.
The above link is for UnHackMe, a supposed rootkit killer. Does anyone know whether this is effective or legitimate?

Also, does anyone know about Rootkit Hunter (http://www.rootkit.nl/projects/rootkit_hunter.html)? Problem is, it's not for Windows.

thx for any replies

I agree with peepnklown. Blacklight, seems to get the job done, well, it has so far in every thread where I`ve instructed someone to use it.

Not too sure about the Unhackme programme and I have absolutely no idea about the Rootkit Hunter.
