| Hello! Well, the simplest explanation would be: Trojan horse. Yes, Trojan horse and rootkit are same thing. That means that rootkit is small program which is used for capturing information (passwords, user names, credit cards numbers, etc). You can fight against this treat using antitrojan software. hope this helps you! |
