    Thumbs down rootkit aaeme798.sys

    I know that *.sys files are windows ones, but i have a question,
    does anyone know about a file called
    Code:
    "aaeme798.sys"
    ?
    I can't find it anywhere on google, and my friends anti-rootkit software is saying its a rootkit.

    any suggestions?

    I'm pretty sure that isn't actually a Windows file or you'd get some hits from google. Better be safe than sorry.

    Honestly, Avast4 has a better detection engine, and it has a linux version.
