Hi,
Every time I run Webroots, it finds something called a rootkit,(anti
phishing),in c:\documents and settings\signonname\local
settings\temp\antiphishing...
Is this part of Defender?Should I remove this rootkit,Windows can't see it.
I'm running XP on auto update.
Thanks for reading,

No it's not a part of Windows®Defender, I run SpySweeper as well as WD,
and no rootkits are detected on this system. You should open a ticket with
Webroot support if your rootkit is not being removed, or post to the
SpySweeper forum on CastleCops with your detection, and see if you can get
help on the removal, or try a rootkit specialist F-Secure Blacklight for
removal, since the BL trial has been extended to September:
