# Anti-antirootkit coded by saic. This code will stop chkrootkit from
# doing its thing. Tested on chkrootkit version 0.44 running on Red Hat
# enterprise 3. The code can be easliy modified for other anti-rootkit
# tools.
#
# Usage: Just run the Perl-script and it'll take care of the rest.
# No, this isn't a script-kiddie tool. Skiddies don't gain root very
# often. You will need write permissions on the files to change (which
# is usually only granted to the superuser). This is NOT some
# root-gaining exploit.
#
# Make sure to drop me an e-mail (introop at gmail dot com) if there are
# updates that may stop this code from working. Oh yeah, this is under the
# GNU GPL by the way. Not that anybody would steal this code, but still.
# Shell donations are welcome aswell.
