Review:

RootkitRevealer is a portable, freeware tool designed for uncovering rootkits by exposing files and registries that have been hidden from the operating system. This tool is for advanced users since it doesn’t tell you what is a rootkit, it just lists suspicious files hidden to the OS. However, beginners can always Google suspicious registries if RootkitRevealer finds anything.

Usage of RootkitRevealer is very easy, just extract the zip file, run the RootkitRevleaer.exe file and press “Scan”. By default, the application will exclude hidden files/registries that appear on all Windows XP installs, but you can turn this on and off.
