I do not have the skill to analyse files. On the website http://www.ms-mvp.org/ he/she says: "On this page you will find a few utilities I created and some created by others (Note: tools not created by me are the properties of the respected owner/author as listed below) to aid in the repair of compromised systems due to malware, spyware, viruses, and certain Trojans These tools were designed to work on Windows 2000/XP systems only unless otherwise stated in the product description." I may be blind, but cannot see where he/she is claiming tools as his/her own. If these tools do, actually, work - and their sole purpose is designed to help others, maybe the 'real authors' should grant an amnesty an/or join TRT in his/her effort to assist other people. Might that help? -- Dave

If you do a little research on your own you will find that PCBUTTS has taken the content of OTHER VENDORS and PERSONS files and placed it inside his files. He's also been busted with the EXACT COPY of others files where he forgot to take their names out of every location, but he did change the obvious parts to his name.... Face it BD, Butts is a bad person, unethical to the max, and you appear to be unable to validate/check anything on your own - his simple BATCH file can be viewed with a text editor (notepad) and you can see the signature that the real author placed there, that butts didn't know about, and was then exposed in public - you already know this, David sent you the information months ago, not to mention that it was posted in these groups several times. -- You can't trust your best friends, your five senses, only the little voice inside you that most civilians don't even hear -- Listen to that.

In the past, I did try out all the tools. Nothing 'bad' seemed to happen to me!

To constantly whine about someone being 'bad', yet doing nothing about it, is anathema to me. Make it so! -- Dave

Why don't you actually look up what is involved in making a formal charge of copyright theft to the police and come back and tell us how easy it is, in your own words.... -- You can't trust your best friends, your five senses, only the little voice inside you that most civilians don't even hear -- Listen to that.

I thought I had cleaned this, and I had really not. That's not entirely accurate. Malwarebytes does detect some rootkits. As do the other programs. Some newer rootkits will prevent rootkitrevealer and/or gmer from even loading. > There was a deep and nasty rootkit involved here.

Not very deep or nasty if you only had to delete files. Yes, I'm sure it was a pain because you couldn't do it while in windows, but it's still not what I would call deep. -- "Hrrngh!
