 PCWorld.com - Symantec, Kaspersky Criticized for Cloaking Software
Both Symantec and Kaspersky concede that they have shipped software that hides information from system tools, but tell IDG News Service they disagree with Russinovich's use of the term rootkit, saying that because their software was not designed with malicious intent, it should not be lumped into the same category.
With version 5 of its Kaspersky Anti-Virus software, first released about a year ago, the company began to employ cloaking techniques to hide "checksum" information that the software used to determine which files on the computer it had or had not scanned.
While Russinovich agrees that the Symantec and Kaspersky cloaking techniques are not as dangerous as Sony's, which virus writers ultimately exploited, he says that all three vendors were engaging in a practice that is bad for users and IT professionals.

The CAB file could be sent in an email, for example, and once the Kaspersky antivirus scanner had accepted it, the malicious code would be in the system.
