In the last c't magazine I found an side-cut on the German
"Bundestrojaner", a spy software developed for the secret service:
"Since the AV software is booted from a clean CD, and has full control
over the machine, there is no disk space where a rootkit or other
spyware could hide itself."
Never a safe assumption: a rootkit can hide itself in Flash, and in
particular can hide itself in the "hidden" System Management Mode BIOS
space (Phrack 65).
