Hi.

It's not a rootkits.
Gameguard protect against binary debugging and game abusing ,so they are
detected at suspicious rootkit 
Antivirus software always inspect file header and contents. They will
determine rootkit or backdoor, if they're not completing inspection process
to the file or directory.

Regards. P4ssion

latest update regarding Rakion game (mad by Softnyx)

included a malicious .dll 

entitiesMP.dll


Thanks to virustotal.com i found this:

-

AntiVir 7.1.1.14 09.07.2006 TR/RKit.Delf.B.6

AVG 386 09.07.2006 BackDoor.Generic3.KYW

Kaspersky 4.0.2.24 09.07.2006 Rootkit.Win32.Delf.b

Panda 9.0.0.4 09.07.2006 Suspicious file

this dll hides two process from the tasklist:

rakion.bin

gameguard.des


and whoknows what else it does...


is this a good way to avoid trainers or game hacks?


Softnyx company keeps answer their customers it is a BUG of our antivirus
program and suggest us to unistall the AV!


We need someone authoritative force them to use this unethical tools!

Please join us


I think...first..is ethical to hide processes running on a computer to his
owner ?


If softnyx can...than everyone else can!


and in second time.. is it ethical to deploy this kind of update without
warning the users?...or better...suggesting users to remove their own
antivirus softwares??


wait for your opinions
