Better Safe Than Sorry

Sony Rootkit Uninstaller Available

Sony is now offering users an uninstaller for the Rootkit that would have secretly installed on their PCs if they had placed a Sony music CD in their CD drive anytime after March 2005. While the Rootkit is (probably) not in itself dangerous it does allow hackers a potential entry point into a users PC and for this reason alone should be removed. Bad Sony, bad dog!
