GMER 1.0.14.14536 is an application that detects and removes rootkits.
A rootkit is a program (or combination of several programs) designed to take complete (root) control of a computer system, without authorization by the system's owners or managers.
GMER monitors the processes creating, drivers and libraries loading, file functions, registry entries and TCP/IP connections
GMER scans for hidden processes, threads, modules, services, files, alternate data streams and registry keys. It also looks for drivers hooking SSDT, IDT or IRP calls.
GMER runs on Windows NT/W2K/XP or Vista.
The program displays ever process active in your system, and displays the info related to them. Clicking on a given process will let you see the libraries it uses, and the threads it runs. You can them selectively kill the chosen process or processes, or kill them all.
The program allows you to see and delete files that you believe dangerous. It also edits the registry. You can also check which programs are set to be run on startup, and modify that list.
