Understanding and Fighting Malware
Posted in Security by Ben Christian on January 12th, 2006 I just finished viewing this on-demand web cast where Mark Russinovich goes into great depth about how various malware works and how to effectively remove them. Mark also covers the use of rootkits which malware writers are starting to take advantage of these days. It’s worth the 1:12 minutes.
I’ll certainly be adding the free sysinternals utilities that Mark demonstrated to my tool kit. The utilities include process explorer, sigcheck, autoruns and Rootkit Defender.
