Publisher's description
From Panda Security :Panda Anti-Rootkit shows hidden system resources, identifying known and unknown rootkits. It analizes hidden drivers, processes, modules, files, registry entries, SDT modifications, EAT hooks, modification to the IDT, non standard INT2E and SYSENTER, IRP hooks. Unlike other anti-rootkit utilities which merely "reveal" hidden objects, Panda Anti-Rootkit positively identifies known and unknown rootkits and gives the option of removing them, including their associated registry entries, processes and files.

Version: Panda Anti-Rootkit 1.08
"Great Rootkit utility from Panda Security"
Pros: It scans your computer against rootkits.
It scans really fast and also offers an "in depth" scan, which I haven't tried out yet, though.
Cons: If you download it through the website of Panda Security you need to register, that's a bit annoying.
Other than that, no issues with the software itself.

"I'm not a geek, so I can say that this is good enough for me."
Pros: I keep an icon on my desktop, double click and get it up and running. It seems good enough, doesn't hog memory, and seems to do what needs doing. It's a good, fast, addition to my other security programs.

Version: Panda Anti-Rootkit 1.08
"BEWARE - Backup your hard drive before using this (full backup or clone)"
Cons: Tried this on one machine - 3 yr old Pentium 4 HT with 2 SATA drives running XP Home SP3. Clicked in-depth scan ... it restarted the machine and hung there for hours (black screen, no apparent activity). Every time I restarted, blank screen - even in safe mode.
Fortunately, I had backed up the hard drive. Attached the damaged drive to another PC and it kept restarting. Finally did a hot attach and was able to wipe and restore from my backup. Drive has zero bad sectors - all damage was done by Panda anti-rootkit ... thank you Panda!
