How Does Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool Work?
The Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool can be also found on the regular microsoft updates. After the installation the program will run on the next powerup of the system. You will not see it – it’s very fast and detects few popular malicious softwares (well, maybe you will see it if it detects a malicious software – never had any :)) Microsoft got another tool called “Windows Defender” that acts as an active shield from spywares and such. It got a large database of malicious softwares and I read positive reviews about it (don’t have it on my system, but installed it on others). You can get it here for free.
