Rootkit Scan

AndreiRC

Until last week, after scanning my two disk partitions under Deep Scan, my BD Antivirus 2009 was also scanning for rootkits. Since last week, more precisely since the Vista SP2 update, it stopped scanning for rootkits after scanning the two partitions. I have checked the logs and it does say there 'Scan for rootkits: Yes'.

Do I need to do something to get that rootkit scan back on or is this a normal occurance?

Hello AndreiRC,

The best way to check if the rootkit scan is enabled is to verifying the status of the BitDefender rootkit scan drivers.

Please start a deep system scan and while it is running go to Start - Run - type in "cmd" then type:

sc query trufos[Enter]

sc query profos[Enter]

Post the results here.

Thanks!

Ok, I got this as results to those two queries:

SERVICE_NAME: trufos

TYPE : 1 KERNEL_DRIVER

STATE : 1 STOPPED

WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 1077 (0x435)

SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)

CHECKPOINT : 0x0

WAIT_HINT : 0x0

SERVICE_NAME: profos

TYPE : 1 KERNEL_DRIVER

STATE : 1 STOPPED

WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 50 (0x32)

SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)

CHECKPOINT : 0x0

WAIT_HINT : 0x0

Does this mean that they are not functioning? If yes, what should I do to make them work?

Just as observation: I read on the French language forum that someone has a similar problem with similar circumstances, the rootkit analysis disappearing after the SP2 update. So it's definitely not my computer.
