RootkitRevealer
Hi All,
I ran RootkitRevealer tonite, as I do each week. This is the first time it has ever displayed anything, and I'm not sure if it's something to be alarmed by so thought I'd post here where the Computer experts can help me out. There were 2 entries identical: path: HKLM/Security/Policy/Secrets/SAC Size: 0 Description-Key name contains embedded null (*) And the 3rd entry: D: size 0: Error Mounting Volume Don't have a clue what all this means. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Marlene2 |

Re: RootkitRevealer
Hi
I'm no expert when it comes to reading Rootkit logs, but if you did have a rootkit, entries would show up such as C:\Documents and Settings\blah\blah 7/17/2006 4:44 PM 38.50 KB Hidden from Windows API. I'm not sure exactly what the entries you posted mean, but I don't believe it's anything to worry about.

Those keys are legitimate, but their origins hadn't been confirmed by Rootkit Revealer developers last I spoke to them in November. Nothing to worry about.

Re: RootkitRevealer
Thanks for your replys! I went back in and started RootkitRevealer again today just to make sure I had the post correct and it does come up SAC.
It comes up almost immediately after it starts. The pc seems to be running fine, so I'm taking your advise and am just not going to worry about it. Thanks again! This support forum is the BEST! Marlene2 |

Re: RootkitRevealer
As Glaswegian and Kalim have pointed out, nothing to worry about:
