Hard to rate 4 stars by gimpguy Sep 02, 2008 (Read all my 654 reviews)
I found it hard to rate RR due to the complexity of who this is meant for. I use it all the time and it's simply not meant for newbies. There are 2 keys that are found and needed by the windows system and are not threats but you have to know this. A basic user won't know this. So I am rating this according to basic user ratings, else for some who are more savvy it would be a 5. It's not as easy as Blacklight or others, but I find it does and excellent job. showShow review details
From a trusted software developer. 3 stars by alnjk01 Oct 05, 2006 (Read all my 124 reviews)
Tiny footprint and no install needed. Scan is fast and from what I tested accurate. However as has been said you have to know what the results mean! It does come with a help file though. showShow review details
Great, but productive for experts only 4 stars by Leendert Oct 28, 2005 (Read all my 27 reviews)
Difficult to state a recommendation, and that is precisely the point of my review. I would recommend it for experienced users, not because I can testify of its efficiency as I am not a specialist, but because it is signed SysInternals, a name of highly qualified software, a developer of whom I use other brilliant gems of software. I would not recommended it to novice users, because once RootkitRevealer has established diagnostic results, 1- I have no idea what should be considered as intrusion as opposed to normal data, and 2- should intrusion have been established, I ignore how I would be able to eradicate it. Seems rootkits are the future of malware. The whole system is getting smarter. Rootkits on one hand, heuristic developed (including rootkit diagnose) anti-malware on the other hand. So, more than ever, we'll have to delegate our confidence. SysInternals is in the lot of friends, but knowledge is at this point too highly required for unqualified users, of which I am. showShow review details
