I would be very interested if a more script savvy
person could translate as whether it means using a
Nortons on this?

It's a 'rootkit' (used to install backdoors into a machine once its security has been compromised).

There is no known way for it to get onto your machine in the first place, unless someone already has access to your machine (either from the keyboard in a work environment, or via the network), or you download and run 'trojaned' software which installs it (or dodgy attachments sent to you by people you don't know. But nobody does that, right?)

There are also no 'in the wild' reports of it being propagated.

But if I was an antivirus manufacturer I'd be encouraging people to buy my product :)

Have fun,
Shay
