Microsoft® Windows® Malicious Software Removal Tool



Excellent! I've been looking for a tool to remove the Malicious Microsoft Windows operating system for ages

Microsoft have stated that the tools are not intended to replace the existing tools aimed at corporate users. I imagine the worry about falling foul of yet another monopoly or unfair practice suit will limit what they do.

A number of the companies offering commercial versions are also MS partners, so it is unlikely that they will want to rain on their parade. Well, not just yet anyway.
