Ok so I have reason to believe that I have a rootkit that is fucking with some part of my computer, likely my hard drive. It's at 100% use just about all the time and my pc in general runs VERY slowly. As I understand with rootkits, your best bet is to wipe the hard drive somehow. My retarded ass threw away the win10 disk. I'm willing to buy another but should I use DBAN or will a format be enough?

Far more likely the hard drive is failing.
Or your SATA cable came loose.
Though malware can put it at 100%, there's usually signs.

Signs like what? I bought this hard drive last December. Also all tbe SMART shit on speccy says it's fine. I doubt it's failing and the cable is fine

looked up "best anti rootkit" and got this... is this the legit malwarebytes site? the other one is buy.malwarebytes.com and this one is not. plus this has a bunch of "free" downloads on it.
install gentoo
