Just because the videos are similar doesn't mean it's stolen. The important thing is to get the info about this malware to as many people as possible.

@marcs57 Thank you. I DO NOT steal content from anyone. I was researching it and I wanted to share the info.

@Zestypanda Actually no. See, I RESEARCHED it. I went on Google and read articles. I am making a video on it too. Multiple people can make a video over the same subject. If you don't like it, don't watch it.

How to not get infected 1 Don't download cracked software or random Executable files or code that you don't know or trust the source from and scan them via virustotal "one scanner isn't enough". 2 Run a limited User account or at the least turn UAC up to fill level. Why? This Rootkit STILL needs to be installed as root to get the bootkit so it can bypass kernel protections and install itself in the kernel as a kernel mode rootkit. 3 Keep up with updates. 4 Don't trust AV.

@pcspeeder I did not steal anything from anyone. I am putting out information on it too. If our videos are similar, OH WELL. Get over it. If you don't like, don't watch it.

Do you still have this malware sample, as I would like to re-search it on a VM.
