What is Anti-Stealth?

Rootkits use special techniques to prevent unauthorized files and processes from being detected using conventional means. Anti-Stealth technology is integrated into NOD32 and allows the On-Demand Scanner and Access Monitor (AMON) modules to detect these objects even when their presence has been hidden from the operating system. By default, Anti-Stealth is enabled in NOD32 and is used automatically by the modules which require it.
