    Panda anti rootkit tool put me on continuous reboot loop when i selected deep scan on windows xp. I had to go into safe mode and remove the panda AR including all the registries and boot again. Is there any anti rootkit that will work without this problem?

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    This is not really a malware problem. It is just an issue you had with one particular software program. There are dozens of rootkit scanners which all work fine. Even Panda works for most people. Not sure why you had a problem.

    A bunch of different scanners are mentioned at the end of the below link:
