Oh, good, another root kit
Oh, good, another root kit
Molly Wood Former Executive Editor
Molly Wood was an executive editor at CNET, author of the Molly Rants blog, and host of the tech show, Always On. When she's not enraging fanboys of all stripes, she can be found offering tech opinions on CBS and elsewhere, and offering opinions on everything else to anyone who will listen.
Remember how Sony BMG hid a root kit in its DRM'd CDs that exposed you to potential hacker attacks? At least the company had DRM as its excuse. But what's the excuse behind stashing a root kit in its utility suite? And "stupid" doesn't count.
