McAfee has released a new software called McAfee Rootkit Detective Beta that can proactively detect and clean hidden rootkits (including processes, registry keys and hooked services) that are running on a computer.
Here are the main features of this freeware software:
-Designed to proactively detect the system objects like processes, files and registry that are hidden to the user.
-Provides information about all running processes in the system.
-Provides information about various system hooks like SSDT(System Service Descriptor Table) hooks, user/kernel IAT/EAT(Import/Export Address Table) hooks.
-Allows the user to clean/remove the malicious objects from the system by renaming/deleting the hidden files/registry.
-Allows the user to terminate the malicious processes.
-Users can submit samples using the submission feature present in the tool.
Users can also collect the samples manually after renaming them and submit to stinger@avertlabs.com for further analysis.
