Hi All,

Does anyone know if there is a website that has info about root kits. One of my servers was infected with the ShowTee 
root kit.  I did find some info about ShowTee by searching on google, but it wasn't as helpful as I'd have hoped.
I'm looking for something similar to Symantec's Virus Encyclopedia, where I can type in the name of a virus and I get 
detailed info about how it spreads, what type of files it infects, how to clean it and any variants of the virus.
Is there such a site for root kits?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, 
Peter
