I just dont understand why so much noise about more one script kiddie in our
lives. Tornkit is just a rootkit made by a script kiddie to ease his
"owning-nights". If we were analyze each rootkit made by script kiddies we
would take all our whole lifes, since they can vary and change for each
architecture. So if we made a good security routine before the attack I am
sure you wouldnt even have been noticed that there was a rtk called
"t0rnkit".

I think you are making a tempest in a water cup... (just my opinion ;)

the (un)lucky few to examine the kit.
