Remove Generic Rootkit.g!rootkit virus from system

Symtoms:
This Rootkit is a very dangerous virus known for keylogger. so it can send your details and passwords without your knowledge.
Rootkit will be downloaded without you knowledge when you visit some less sucure sites. Antivirus like McAfee or IObit security are able to identify and clean but its not permanent.
Antivirus reports Rootkit files as
C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\synsenddrv.sys
and
C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\str.sys

Solution
Download and Install "Rootkit_Detective.exe" from http://download.cnet.com/
Run Rootkit_Detective.exe and after scanning it will ask you to reboot the system. Once you reboot it renames the virus files and solves the problem.
