the statement about GMER is not true. I've seen GMER miss MANY rootkits/etc. As far as catching and removing rootkits that other most av's tend to misss i've had by far the most success with combofix(which includes a GMER scan). Nothing will catch 0day rootkits 100% of the time, once a system is compromised it's best to format and start from scratch (or restore from backup if you're positive it's clean, but make sure you replace the mbr too). Theres just no other way to be completely certain. I lost track of the times that I thought I got everything on a windows machine, then google for something like malwarebytes as a test only to be redirected.

- cerebrum 14y agoI would like to use GMER/combofix but how can I kow that I can trust them and that they don't contain malware?
