GMER 1.0.14.14536

After scanning with Gmer a window popped-up indicating:

[quote]
GMER
Warning !!!
GMER has found system modification caused by ROOTKIT activity.
[unquote]

I examined all items and there one (1) item shown in red letters.
Type: Libary
Name: C:\Documents [***hidden***] @ C:\Documents[2216
Value: 0x00400000

I assume that this item is the culprit in question. I request guidance as
how to proceed and eliminate this rootkit.

TIA

Please return to the thread you started.

The above in combo with...
O23 - Service: GEIF - Unknown owner - C:\DOCUME~1\TRAVEL~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\GEIF.exe (file
missing)

Is indicative of malware and possibly a RootKit as suspected.
