Re: Rootkit.Boot.SST.b is NOT coming off! PLEASE help

FixTDSS never even worked once on my Windows XP Media Center pc.  Will it have any improvements on detecting rootkits and fixing system files, plus have antimbr functionality?

Re: Rootkit.Boot.SST.b is NOT coming off! PLEASE help

FixTDSS is designed for a specific group and that does not include the clones or mods of that group. It is not a auto -protect always running tool but on demand scanner.  So anti-MBR = No 

 

Old TDL2, 2+, 3, 3+, 4 = yes

 

Pihar, Max++, MaxSS, Rovix (Cidox) = No

 

If you don't understand the Tools around or the Malware like these, Best not play with them.

[ Edited ]

So does Power Eraser match the detection rates of TDSSKiller? And can it find mbr rootkits like avast's or gmer's mbr?
