EP_X0FF and Rootkit Unhooker off to Microsoft
Microsoft have just gained one of the best anti rootkit teams on the planet. EP_X0FF and the development team of Rootkit Unhooker have joined Microsoft. They are currently making plans to ship off to Wittenberg in Germany ( where Martin Luther is buried ) where the Rootkit Unhooker team will finish off work on their, up to now,secret project called Secured Eye (SEye),“…in a two words this is project mix of software/hardware related to distributed calculations and virtualization technologies based on Vanderpool / Pacifica extensions. Not a Blue Pill. To be more correct some parts of SEye can be used as a pill for any kind of Blue Pill variations 
”
Microsoft now owns Rootkit Unhooker and SEye….”As you can guess all our source code and concept were sold to MS. This was happened in the beginning of November and includes all variants of our test programs, RkU, including last 4.1 version and SEye which is ready on 3/4.”
It is a great thing that EP_X0FF and the team are off to Microsoft. Just like Mark Russinovitch before them, their vision and knowledge alongside money and resources from Microsoft will bode well for us all in the future.
Best of Luck to you all and keep in touch.

There’s nothing that money can’t buy = 100% truth. I care not whether this is good or bad. Just give me 4.1. Where?

Why innovate when you can purchase? Hey, it’s worked for them so far.

Vsekakor bo v eminenti družbi, saj so bili pred njim asimilirani že, Crispin Cowan linux security guru in avtor aplikacije AppArmor, ter ruski heker EP_X0FF, eminenca na svetovni Windows rootkit sceni in avtor orodja Rootkit Unhooker.
