Hi,

Root kits exist for a variety of operating systems such as Linux, Solaris, and versions of Microsoft Windows.

A collection of tools that allows a hacker to provide a backdoor into a system, collect information on other systems on the network, mask the fact that the system is compromised, and much more.

toolbar

toolbar(3erl)						     Erlang Module Definition						     toolbar(3erl)

NAME

       toolbar - GUI for Starting Tools and User Contributions

DESCRIPTION

       Toolbar makes it easier to use the different Erlang tools - and the user contributions - which are provided. It has a graphical user inter-
       face with an icon for each tool. Clicking the icon activates the corresponding tool.

       All tools to be included on Toolbar must have a configuration file containing information about the tool, for example  its  start  function
       and help information location. Configuration files must have the .tool suffix.

       When  started,  Toolbar automatically checks for *.tool files in the current path and adds the corresponding tools. For each ebin directory
       found in the path, it will also look in a priv directory next to it. This is a feature of the Erlang file structure.

EXPORTS

       start() -> ok | already_started

	      Creates a window containing tool icons.

       version() -> string()

	      Returns the current version number of Toolbar.
