Thanks.  I tried RootkitRevealer, it found nothing.  I have not tried the 
other tools yet. 

But back to the question:  Could a rootkit allow an attacker to log in over 
the network and yet have it show up as a console logon in the security log?  
This is really a question about the Windows security log and what it means.
