i dont know much about rootkits ether....this tread is the first i ever herd about them.

but i read the artical that kath put in ,one huge headache later i figured out that they are basicley bad programs that somehow hide themselfs from the user....and can be used as a an attemt at overkill DRM...

and after reading that ,i downloaded that "rootkit revealer" program and ran it ..and it came up with whol bunch of stuff....wich i have no idia what it was...but all the stuff was ether in the "temporary internet files" or in with my one game "far cry" folders and a couple registry entries ,but the PC isent acting any worse than normal, so im assuming (hope) all the stuff it found is harmless...

now my brain reely hurts...
