Panda Anti-Rootkit
Great Rootkit utility from Panda Security
Pros: It scans your computer against rootkits.
It scans really fast and also offers an "in depth" scan, which I haven't tried out yet, though.
Cons: If you download it through the website of Panda Security you need to register, that's a bit annoying.
Other than that, no issues with the software itself.

I'm not a geek, so I can say that this is good enough for me.
Pros: I keep an icon on my desktop, double click and get it up and running. It seems good enough, doesn't hog memory, and seems to do what needs doing. It's a good, fast, addition to my other security programs.

Unable to give an opinion
Cons: For an unknown reason to me, Panda Anti-Rootkit found problems in my computer and shut it down twice, during the download process, something that has not happen with similar programs I have installed.

"The Best Stuff?"
Pros: I wanted to try this software because PC magazine rated it as the "Best Stuff" in it's Nov 07 issue. I tried it and it seems ok. When you download it, it opens in a Winzip .exe file, which is ok, but not what you normally see when installing software. I double clicked on the .exe file and it gave me an option of running from startup which i did. It was very fast, had no problems on my XP system and found no rootkits or other problems. Of course the real test would have to come from the true tester geeks who have rootkits installed, then run it to see if it is detected by this software.
Cons: I had no problems with this software, but it does not actually install on your computer, you must vist the website and run it online.
