Vanquish and HE4Hook are older and more widely known precompiled kernel- mode rootkits. Newer development and open discussions have been taking place online to improve these and other kernel-mode rootkits. A basic kernel-mode rootkit is available in source code and has been steadily improved by a talented group of contributors.

Hacker Defender is one of the more successful and widely available second-generation rootkits. Kernel-mode rootkits are the third-generation rootkit, and as indicated by their name, they operate in kernel mode. These rootkits take the library rootkit approach one deadly step further.
