The other concern I've seen has been the security vulnerability
issue, which Sony, of course, disclaims. Also, I have no idea how real
or valid this might be, but the fear is that if a user is hit with
another root kit the resulting low level conflicts will render the PC
unuseable. If this is true, it would seem we're heading for eventual
legislation banning so-called cloaking technology.
Yes. That's what bothers me. the cloaking technology per say isn't bad.
What happens if I'm using a modified copy of VNC, and It doesn't appear
in task manager? This "rootkit" nonsense would make it illegal.
Art, refresh my memory if you don't mind. Didn't we used to call
applications that hid their presence, stealth? When did this rootkit
terminology replace that?
I don't think stealth has been replaced by root kit and cloacking. The
old stealth viruses are still stealth viruses, for example. I suppose
one might consider root kits as a subset of stealth malware just as
some view worms as a subset of viruses. But that's just my impression.
I don't recall seeing a terminolgy discussion/debate on that subject
here.

Not the uninstall per say, just the fact the program makes an active

And you would be willing to install MORE software that SAYS it will decloak the
old software?
What if this program simply replaced the old software with something even worse?
