I am running Ubuntu 14.04 32bit.

Recently, I decided to install ClamAV. It keeps warning me about this pua.win.trojan.xored-1. I read online that this means I have a rootkit.

I download and ran chkrootkit. It says the following:

The following suspicious files and directories were found:  
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/uic/widget-plugins/.noinit

Searching for Suckit rootkit...  Warning: /sbin/init INFECTED

I just ran rkhunter and this came up:

/usr/bin/unhide.rb [ Warning ]

To remedy the problem, I am currently downloading a new Ubuntu ISO. I will re-install everything from scratch. Assuming that I have a rootkit, is this enough to solve the problem?


Update: I didn't know that rkhunter wasn't finished yet. Here is some more:

Checking /dev for suspicious file types                  [ Warning ]
Checking for hidden files and directories                [ Warning ]
