I did a rootkits deep scan on the free Spybot Search & Destroy.
It found most of the files of all my GNS3 projects. (a number of 30)
GNS is a free simulator packet for Cisco projects

Are this false positives?

Sorry it are 300 (not 30) files detected: all GNS 3 files.
(there are also other rootkit files)
How can I log my rootkits search results in a file?
I see "to clip board" but I can't select all the items.

Hello louis1444,


I did a rootkits deep scan on the free Spybot Search & Destroy.


In general all items found by the RootAlyzer are not necessarily malicious but shows items it believes to be out of the ordinary and may give a hint for an infection.

Sometimes even legitimate software uses rootkit technologies.

If you know the files are legitimate there isn't a concern, if not start a topic in the RootAlyzer forum after taking a look at other members threads in there so you will see how flagged items are posted. :)

If the log is too long please zip and attach it.

Best regards.
