You may not know what a 'rootkit' is, or what a 'cracker' does, but both terms have a simple explanation.
A rootkit is a combination of tools frequently used by thieves and crackers to hide the way that they are accessing a certain computer. And nothing good will come out of that kind of access.
Sophos Anti-Rootkit is a free tool that will scan your system in search of this type of threat.
The application allows you to look for rootkits in active processes as well as in the Windows registry and local hard drives.
It if finds any, it will display them with other relevant information about the threats.
Just select these unwanted applications from that list to clean them from your computer. It couldn't be any easier.
