Nuke ’em from Orbit says MS

by dr dij . Updated 20 years, 2 months ago

A Microsoft security official says malware is becoming near impossible to detect and/or remove due to rootkits. He suggests companies have setup to quickly re-image their drives, or “nuke ’em from orbit” as he says.

Do you spend hours fixing these or re-image?
I guess if it’s rootkits, you may not even KNOW you have a problem?!

(even the sysinternals detector won’t find all of them according to their own info, tho it probably finds most current ones)
