Nothing new about rootkits. They aren't big news because they are old news.
Although depressing this is defiantly possible.

Interesting indeed. Although, I imagine this was a spam email, and I
never believe (nor buy) anything from spam. I wondr how credible this
really is. If there was such a way to do what they claim, don't you
think it would have been big news? One would think you wouldn't first
hear about it through spam.

Also - nice website they have. http://www.randexsoft.com

I love a company who is customer friendly.
