The elusive rootkit
In December 2006, rumors began to circulate among rootkit
researchers (both blackhat and whitehat) that someone had created and
released an ‘absolutely undetectable’ rootkit, Rustock.С, which could
not be detected on computers where it was active by any of the existing
antivirus or anti-rootkit solutions.
A long search for the ‘mythical rootkit’ yielded no result. As a
consequence, any information about Rustock.C was treated as a joke in
circles close to rootkit researchers. This continued until May 2008.

all major epidemics and malicious programs during this period being
financially driven.
