Trojan Rootkits (Rootkit.Gen) Disables AntiVirus Apps & Security Sites
A trojan rootkit variant (part of the Win32.Rootkit.Gen or Rootkit.Gen family group) continues to threaten computer users and has the ability to prevent anti-virus software from running to scan and remove parasites on your computer. Computer users who are infected with the rootkit variant state that it does not allow them to open their anti-virus program or visit websites that assist them in the removal of the infection such as symantec.com and update.microsoft.com. It is apparent that serious issues will occur for computer users who have a Rootkit type of infection on their computer.
