  • Abstract
    In October 2005, Sysinternals´ Mark Russinovich discovered a rootkit on his computer, which he later determined stemmed from a Sony-BMG compact disc. In this article, the authors examine the copy-protection software found on those discs and the implications for digital rights management.
