  1. Disable Autorun on your Windows PC. This way the software cannot be automatically loaded onto your computer when you insert a Sony DRM enabled audio disc or application.
  2. When you insert a Sony CD into your computer, do not accept the Sony End User License Agreement (EULA). Accepting this long document in legalese effectively means you give permission for Sony to install software on your computer. Don’t.
  3. Copy the music tracks to your computer if you so desire. Since these discs are designed to intentionally hide files from Windows, you may need specialized ripping software. Ripping programs such as Exact Audio Copy (see external links) can read these files if you have turned off autorun and disabled the spyware install.

  5. Sony has released a patch in response to criticism. In theory, the patch removes the cloaking-rootkit aspects of their software, though leaves the DRM (which prevents copying the music) in place but now unhidden. See Warnings for concerns regarding the patch, and External Links (below) to download it if you choose.

  • Technical novices can ensure safety by not placing any new CDs distributed by Sony or BMG into your PC until this issue is resolved.
  • Discs with Sony’s DRM cannot be officially called Compact Discs, as they violate the original “Red Book” standard devised by Sony and Philips in June 1980. They can be easily spotted as the cases will not feature the familiar ‘Compact Disc’ logo.
  • Create a file with the name $sys$ on your computer, if the file disappears you are most likely already infected with the Rootkit.
  • Microsoft is also coming out with a Rootkit fix in their Microsoft Antispyware Beta (Windows Defender). You can also download this program to fix this issue.
