    I thought that it might be a good idea to give a list of all the threads here at the Wilders-board about the Sony DRM Rootkit.
    Name and link of the thread is given.

    To the Mods: I wasn't sure where to post this.
    To all: please feel free to add threads that I forgot to add.

    c:\WINDOWS\system\$sys$filesystem\$sys$DRMServer

    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\$sys$COR.SYS

    2. Checkme Now;

    $sys$aires

    $sys$cor

    $sys$crater

    $sys$DRMServer
