Noob with a Rootkit
« on: January 05, 2015, 02:54:55 AM »
Hi, I'm having trouble getting a root kit off of my win 8.1 pc. RK did catch some suspicious registry entries and I deleted them, but that hasn't fixed the browser redirection.

I've run RogueKiller several times (>10), with the same response each time.

I've attached the report I'm currently seeing. If anyone could help interpret it, I would really appreciate the help. I can go delete/modify the entry, but not sure how to tell which of these are dangerous.



Thanks!

Hello
These are legit hooks and are already whitelisted in the next version, please be patient. :)

Thanks for the quick response! Does this mean that the redirect malware is likely not a root kit?

There's no malware actually, yes
