The only 100% way of getting rid of a rootkit is to reformat and reinstall. There are a some tools that claim they can get rid of rootkits, but I cannot vouch for their effectiveness. Here are two such tools. http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp http://safecomputing.umn.edu/guides/scan_unhackme.html Again I cannot take any responsibility for any data loss etc. If it was my computer that had a rootkit, I`d deffinitely reformat and start again.
