It's easier to open cmd, write "netstat -na" and check for weird IPs.

@MrGreatPoop netstat -b -n -o works better an anythin on ports other than 80,443 then your fucked type msconfig and look for weir things in start up

@InfernoCorpHQ avg may not be good. but ESET is and norton is and avast is... get avast internet security. i used to have that. its great but a botnet can easily break through that firewall.

[InfernoCorpHQ]

@MrKingjohnrocks i used to have avg but it was only good at telling which sites had viruses on them and it sucked at getting rid of existing viruses and malware

[MrKingjohnrocks]

get yourself some top noch security like.. ESET avast internet security. avg internet security norton internet security. i would suggest avast internet security it has a firewall defends against hackers anti virus it doesn't use high disk usage.. its very good. its the best internet security there is although if a army of 50 botnets teamed up.. you would be begging for mercy.

I don't like RUBotted. When I used it I noticed that my forum logs were showing that it was following my every move. That made me feel very uncomfortable so I uninstalled it quick!

Just came across this, I've been using rubotted for a while now before seeing this - however sometimes I'll get bot detections and housecall comes back clean... is this just innocent bot activity? for example irc bots.

Good video man, but seriously, the title? lol. "My computer is a botnet and doesn't afraid of anything" :)
