    ROOT hacking
    « on: April 15, 2011, 08:39:14 AM »
    If someone were to hack your root, how would you make sure that you're rooted and what should you do to get it removed?

    It is just interest out of personal hobby and because I had this sad happening like many years ago.

    By 'root hacking' you mean 'rootkit'.
    Rootkit
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rootkit

    The like above gives a good definition of what a Rootkit is. (There term at one time had a more narrow meaning. It was a rick to be used by administrators to recover a failing system.)

    Here on this forum they do not encourage 'root hacking' as a politically corret hobby.

    For more info, use the term 'rootkit' in yurt search.
