  • Dude... That's fucked. They should really go a little more in depth on rootkits in the CompTIA A+ study material. I mean, I get that it's supposed to be a foundational over view of most IT concepts, but it would have helped me not look dumb.

  • The only way to fix an issue that deep after it gets exploited is to literally throw away your hard drive.

    This can't be right.

    Don't throw your hard drive in the trash. Quarantine the infected computer, and then wipe that hoe and slap your choice of OS back on it and scan/monitor to see if any issues arise.

    Edit: since folks may or may not read though the rest of the conversation: I am wrong, throw that SSD/HDD in the garbage like barbarian said.

  • Just chiming in to say that I remember seeing a .world mod telling us not to post full articles in the post or comments. The thing is, that mod had his account banned for COVID misinformation. Which, if I'm correct, is why you can't find any mention of the rule change?

    the rule might not matter anymore tbh
