Funny thing is, if you're not careful and remove it, your CD-Drive goes with it (software-wise). Their software technically isn't a RootKit, but alot of people have coined the phrase. My guess is the RootKit Revealer is something akin to Ad-aware and Spybot that searches and removes it. -- Darsant Silverstring "Peace cannot be kept by force.
