    VirusBlokAda Ltd. glads to offer you a new version of Vba32 AntiRootkit and invite you to participate in beta testing of our product.
    Links to download:

    ftp://anti-virus.by/beta/Vba32arkit_beta.rar

    ftp://anti-virus.by/beta/Vba32arkit_beta.zip

    ftp://vba.ok.by/vba/beta/Vba32arkit_beta.rar

    The following techniques of kernel-mode rootkit detection are implemented in Vba32 AntiRootkit:
    • searching for SYSENTER hooks;
    • searching for hooks by replacing addresses in SSDT table;
    • searching for hooks by replacing addresses in Shadow SSDT table;
    • searching for hooks by modifying IDT table;
    • searching for export table modifications of main kernel modules (ndis.sys, hal.dll, ntoskrnl.exe);
    • searching for hooks by modifiying machine code (splicing);
    • searching for hooks by replacing addresses of IRP packet handlers;
    • searching for hooks by replacing addresses of FastIO request handlers;
    • searching for kernel modules hidden in the memory. If an object is considered as hidden, it'll be marked as Hidden in memory;
    • searching for processes hidden in memory. If an object is considered as hidden, it'll be marked as Hidden in memory;
    • searching for kernel modules which image on the hard drive doesn't correspond to the image in the memory. Such objects will be marked as Modified image;
    • searching for installed kernel mode notificators.

    Moreover the following additional techniques are implemented:
    • scanning autoruns;
    • scanning drivers and services specified in the registry;
    • scanning all obtained objects (process files, autoruns, loaded drivers/services and kernel modules);
    • checking digital signature of all obtained objects (process files, autoruns, loaded drivers/services and kernel modules);
    • displaying additional information retrievied from file resources.

    The following features are designed for neutralizing rootkits:
    • restoring hooks in SSDT table;
    • restoring hooks in Shadow SSDT table;
    • restoring hooks in IDT table;
    • restoring hooks in main kernel modules (ndis.sys, hal.dll, ntoskrnl.exe);
    • restoring hooks made by machine code modifications;
    • restoring SYSENTER hooks;
    • removing specified objects from autoruns;
    • enabling/disabling drivers/services specified in the registry;
    • copying specified files to the quarantine early in the system boot;
    • deleting specified files early in the system boot;
    • scanning and deleting autorun.inf files;
    • removing installed kernel mode notificators.

    Vba32 AntiRootkit allows user to collect information, which may help in solving problems at user's computer.

    Vba32 AntiRootkit has English help (Vba32ArkitEN.chm file).

    You can send your feedback to beta[at]anti-virus.by or post it here.

    Saraceno, your link is only for antivirus, not for antirootkit.

    Link for antirootkit - come also from this Post #17 (with VBA forum link - by Sergey Ulasen - for this antirootkit software) from the thread: 'ANTI-ROOTKITS: Good, Safe ...' here: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=1540086&postcount=17

    Very good tool.

    Thank you Sergey!

    Thanks for your post there(https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=1540086&postcount=17).

    Until now we have discussing only on http://virusinfo.info/showthread.php?t=41137 in Russian. From this time we will get English-speaking audience to testing Vba32 AntiRootkit.

    Product is constantly evolving. We have had four beta-iterations (3.12.3.0, 3.12.3.1, 3.12.3.2, 3.12.3.3) for 7 monthes. You can see it in readme.en.

    Now we are working up a low level disk access.

    Just tried to run this latest version, but it says - " couldn't install driver"
    However, I can still run the earlier version with no problem.
    See screenshot attached.

    Because you tried to install as untrusted. Run installation file as trusted.

    I tried this, but it didn't work.

    I don't why had so much trouble this time around, but I deleted everything and started over.

    I extracted the rar file to the unzipped folder as trusted, and this time it worked.

    See a copy of the Dw_log.txt for informational purposes, showing the unsuccessful attempts.

    "module C:\unzipped\vba\Vba32arkit.exe, Loading untrusted/untrusted created module C:\unzipped\vba\Vba32ar.dll. Process is untrusted now". That's the reason of the issue.

    Just totally remove "vba" folder and unrar as trusted. Or, another solution- select the "vba" folder and run "change status to trusted".

    Following operations are available: deleting files, copying files to the quarantine. To do this, select the File - Run Script menu item.

    Example:

    Code:
    Brs_Start(); 
    Brs_QtnFile("c:\x.exe"); 
    Brs_DelFile("c:\x.exe"); 
    RebootSystem();
    All information about scripts is available in Vba32arkitEn.chm file in Additional Features/Running Scripts chapter.
