    I do not care about x64
    see me in 5 years when x64 will be ready for prime time!
    x64 does not make your computer run faster and x64 will give you more problems.....
    this program is the best!

    Does not work in Windows 7 x64. It says it need admin privileges (cannot start service) even if you run it as administrator

    Windows 2000/2003/XP it says so that is why it is not working under Vista. Allthough I find it a little strange that some software that is still developted simply ignoring the excisting of Vista.Maybe some one can explain?

    Edit : Now supports Vista.

    When you disable a HIDDEN rootkit, you disable the unvisability so that a virusscanner see the rootkit (after restarting the pc) but...at best you look at the website from SysProt, not all hidden rootkits are dangerous and most of them just are needed in the software you can imagine , see it as an informationtool and if you might find something looking dangerously look for it on forums or asked it out there. Just run the name in a searchengine and get explained what it is and if it is trustfull or not

    don't really know if this is working or not on my Vista (32bit). none of the tabbed windows are showing anything at all - does this mean there's nothing found or that it's not working?

    IMO it needs to be a little more user friendly and include some more information to the (regular) user and some feedback to show what it's doing (if anything)

    Thanks...

    BetaNews doesn't allow to post without choosing a rating level, so.... :D
